From the International Space Station (ISS) National Lab (via Twitter): All sorts of skills are needed in science and space. Congratulations to these Girl Scouts who demonstrated STEAM skills! We are excited to see their experiments fly on a mission to the ISS later in 2021. In the meantime, check out the winning mission patch design! ![](http://www.collectspace.com/review/girl_scouts_making_space_patch01.jpg) |

Girl Scouts of Citrus is the council in Central Florida that collaborated with SpaceKids Global to run the "Making Space For Girls Challenge." SpaceKids Global, the Florida-based, non-profit established to use space exploration to engage children in STEAM learning, announces 12 winners of its inaugural "Making Space For Girls Challenge," a science competition conducted in collaboration with Girl Scouts Citrus Council in Central Florida. All winning science-oriented submissions will be included on the SpaceX launch from the Kennedy Space Center to the International Space Station scheduled for later this year, said Sharon Hagle, founder and CEO of SpaceKids Global. Girls of all ages, including two, five-year-old members of a Los Angeles Daisy chapter and who won for their "Making Space for Girls" patch designs, participated in this first-ever challenge. The competition, which launched last August, attracted nearly 700 entries from across the country, as well as entries from Japan and Germany. Girls from 95 of the Girls Scouts' 111 councils participated in the challenge's three designated categories - science experiment, essays and art. |

Embroidered patches in 3-inch and 4-inch sizes are available for sale through the Making Space for Girls online shop.![](http://www.collectspace.com/review/girl_scouts_making_space_patch02.jpg) And here is the insignia (in decal form) on the cover to the Faraday Faraday-2 facility inside the International Space Station's U.S. Destiny laboratory module. The payload gives the Girl Scouts on Earth the opportunity to conduct a control experiment while observing space station experiments on plant growth, ant colonization, and brine shrimp lifecycle aboard the orbiting lab. ![](http://www.collectspace.com/review/girl_scouts_making_space_patch03.jpg) | |
