Encouraging young girls to pursue their dreams in any career. That's one of the many missions of Girl Scouts. This weekend they'll be focusing on science, technology, engineering and math at STEMapalooza!
Back in November, the Orion spacecraft launched from Kennedy Space Center with some very special cargo. Girl Scout badges — 90 in total — were on that mission. At STEMapalooza this weekend, one local girl will be thrilled to accept hers after winning an essay contest.
"And I want to be a space chef when I grow up." 8-year-old Elizabeth is already dreaming big. "I really want to go in space, but I also want to cook so I wanted to be a space chef and they need them and they need more good stuff. They should not have pizza in a tube."
