Hands-On STEM Learning
Students design experiments, fly a payload, and analyze real flight data. Sponsorship funds the curriculum and classroom materials that make that work possible.
Sponsorships
Help Launch theNext Generation
Partner with Above the Bell to expand access to hands-on STEM missions that take students to the edge of space.
Your sponsorship puts real flight hardware, teacher-ready curriculum, and launch-support in classrooms that are ready to fly. Students plan the science. We handle the mission.
Impact
What Your SponsorshipMakes Possible
A sponsorship funds the learning materials, the flight hardware, and the chance for more students to fly a mission.
Mission Hardware & Launch-Support
Balloon systems, payload hardware, FAA-coordinated flight operations, and recovery. Teachers stay focused on learning, not sourcing equipment.
Access for More Schools & Students
Many classrooms have the interest but not the budget. A sponsor closes that gap so more students get to fly a mission, not just read about one.
