It would be nice if things like this got more sustained coverage in the mainstream media; it might help get the younger generation more interested in math and science, areas in which the USA lacks behind most other nations. ![:green_heart: π](https://community.sketchucation.com/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f49a.png?v=3orp1bvic7q)
Yep, the USA have been having trouble keeping up with the rest of the countries who have gone to Mars...
Seriously I know what you mean in regards to education, but I think it would take a lot more than that. I am sure teachers hold up these examples all the time.
Sorry, I should have been more clear. I meant to say that American students seem to be behind in areas of math and science when compared to those in many other countries, i.e. Japan, Germany, China, Finland, etc.
