Set at the UGA Marine Learning Facility as well as Aquarium Tank on Skidaway Island, the camp offered trainees hands-on tasks as well as exterior informative expertises, where they assessed actual records accumulated through NASA researchers and learnt more about neighborhood naturalizations to flooding. Trainees interacted along with pros coming from NASA's Plane Propulsion Research laboratory, UGA, and also Georgia Specialist, getting insights into satellite monitorings, environment-friendly commercial infrastructure, environmental sensors, and occupations associated with water level surge. The camp also included a visit to the Point Ancestry Gallery, where students engaged along with forerunners from the historical Gullah Geechee area of Pin Point. The camping ground concluded along with a cruise to Wassaw Isle, where trainees observed the effects of water level surge on a primitive barrier isle and compared these reviews along with earlier searchings for coming from metropolitan environments. Funding coming from the NASA's Scientific research Activation Plan as well as its own Water Level Education, Recognition, and Proficiency (SEAL) staff made sure that the camping ground came to all trainees, dealing with economic barricades for groups traditionally underrepresented in stalk learning.
