NASA 2026 school trip

Hi my name is Zach and I'm 14 years old. I've been lucky enough to be given the opportunity to go to NASA next year with a select few of my peers due to achieving well in my science subjects.

Sadly my dad passed away when I was 6yrs old and my mum has been a sole parent ever since. My mother is doing everything possible to help me go, but things are tough and i want to help her.

I hope one day that I will be able to help others who are in the same position that I am now. It really is the opportunity of a lifetime for me.

So on the 17th August 2025, I will be walking the distance of a marathon (26.2miles) starting in Eastbourne and finishing in Heathfield at the Heathfield and Waldron Rugby club, East Sussex, who i play rugby for.

Any donations or sponsorship towards completing my challenge will be hugely appreciated so that I may be able to go to NASA.
