🚀✨ Out of This World Experience for Marfa Seniors! ✨🚀

Thanks to Blue Origin, our Marfa 12th graders had an extraordinary opportunity to witness a payload flight launch into outer space today! 💫

Our seniors watched as the payload flight soared beyond Earth’s atmosphere, felt the power of a true sonic boom, and then witnessed the booster’s incredible and precise return to Earth. 🌍🔥

This first-of-its-kind pilot program opened doors for small 1A schools — and we are beyond proud that our very own Marfa Shorthorns were part of it! 💜

A heartfelt THANK YOU to Blue Origin and Ms. Webb for your generosity, vision, and commitment to giving our students this once-in-a-lifetime experience. 🌠
