		| Abstract: | 
		Since 2013, longtime ASP Project Astro participant Ron Rosano has organized 200+ video sessions with over 350 classes on behalf of Virgin Galactic, with whom he will take a suborbital flight into space. Connecting VG staff with students in class period-long Q&A sessions (“virtual field trips”) has been valuable and enriching for all involved. Ron will discuss methods for reaching teachers, technical considerations, and best practices for organizations to reach classrooms. |
