Some area students will have the opportunity to chat with astronauts aboard the International Space Station.

The Tulsa Air and Space Museum will host a live NASA downlink on Monday.

During the 20-minute video chat, Oklahoma students will be able to speak with the astronauts.

Earlier this year, an essay contest was held for students wanting a chance to ask questions of the astronauts.

The live video chat is a part of TASM’s STEM education mission.

The event will be at 9:30 Monday morning inside the Planetarium at TASM.
