Division on Visual Impairments

; Lorem Ipsum Dolor Spring 2016 4 In order to include my students in the adventure, we set up a daily blog, "Countdown With Mr. K," in which I posted educational information and updates of our flight week. Not only were my students engaged in following it, but over 1,800 visitors from 10 countries also joined in the blog by posting questions and encouraging messages. We were provided with two overnight flights aboard SOFIA, with each flight taking us on 5,000-mile journeys north from Palmdale deep into Canada and back again. On our first flight we were even blessed to have aboard with us none other than Nichelle Nichols, the original Lt. Uhura from Star Trek.
