This month’s Farnborough International Airshow near London will showcase the latest and biggest global advancements and innovations in aerospace technology.

Recognizing the global need for more young people in the science and engineering sectors that drive that innovation, the week-long expo will also include the awarding of scholarships to attend the U.S. Space & Rocket Center’s Space Camp in Huntsville.

The Endeavour Scholarship was created in 2019 by Kallman Worldwide President and CEO Tom Kallman in honor of his friend and colleague Al Worden, pilot of the Apollo 15 Command Module Endeavour. Kallman Worldwide is the organizer of the U.S. and Canadian industry presence at trade shows worldwide, including Farnborough.

Kallman and Worden saw the need for an expanded STEM workforce globally and the Endeavour Scholarship was created to give students and educators around the world a life-changing opportunity to experience Space Camp’s immersive astronaut training with like-minded students and teachers from different countries.

“Every country we work in is facing the same challenges to prepare its young people for the future,” Kallman said. “Many also see that future in space. As an extension of our work advancing global trade in exhibition halls around the world, and with the support of global partners in government, industry, the military and academia, the Endeavour Scholarship connects with worldwide interest in space to promote STEM careers in all industries.”
