Project DreamScopes

Help us put a telescope in every middle school. 

Do you remember the first time you looked through a telescope?

It’s a moment that transforms your understanding of who you are.

Remember what it felt like to see the mountains of the Moon, the ice caps of Mars, the Rings of Saturn? To realize they were real worlds?

Remember how it felt as a child to see with your own eyes the Universe of possibility around you, to literally rise above and beyond the circumstances of your daily life and soar?

Just one look, and your life changed, it got bigger. In a way, so did you. Let’s inspire the next generation of scientists, explorers, leaders, and builders of space … together.

There’s a reason they call it a “Moon Shot” Goal


It’s no accident space achievements are the standard for excellence.

Humanity’s most inspiring goals are those that literally rise above us and transcend our every day lives. They challenge us to go beyond what we thought was possible. They bring us together by daring us to look UP and reach for what we see.

It helps to see a thing before you can reach for it, but millions of kids today are looking down at tiny screens, not UP at the vast possibility of the Above.

Let’s inspire a generation to reach beyond their circumstances and Dream by placing a telescope in every middle school on Earth.

They Will Rise!


Inspiration + Education = The Power to Choose

Sure, not everyone will become an astronaut.

Maybe they will be inspired to study just a bit more. Maybe they will decide they want to learn about science or astronomy, or by seeing other worlds they might become more aware of their own environment and work to help save the planet.

Maybe they will decide they want to work in space, start a space company, or perhaps, just maybe, they will want to lead some of the first people to go out there. People whose children will look through telescopes back at their MotherWorld.

The Time Is Now!


We must prepare our kids now to build tomorrow!

  • The highest paying jobs go to the most educated employees.
  • The most inspired students study harder and stay in school longer.
  • The global technology sector is booming and this will only increase.
  • Demand is growing for skilled workers and leaders crosses all sectors.
  • STEAM education is a core investment for every locale, nation, and the planet.
  • A positive and inspiration-driven generation can be equipped and rise to meet these challenges.
  • Space is proven as The most inspiring tool to motivate young minds
