“The Astronaut Scholarship Foundation was created in 1984 by the six surviving Mercury 7 astronauts. Their mission was to ensure the United States would be the global leader in technology for decades to come. The prestigious Astronaut Scholarship is known nationwide for being among the largest merit-based monetary scholarships awarded to undergraduate STEM juniors and seniors. ASF has a life-long relationship with each Astronaut Scholar and provides them with mentors, professional and personal development, and networking with astronauts, C-suite level executives, and industry leaders to help advance their careers.”
