Physics, mathematics major enters Xploration Station’s Student Astronaut Contest

Samuel Borer, a double major in physics and mathematics at the University of Maine, has entered Xploration Station’s Student Astronaut Contest. Borer submitted a three-minute video explaining why he believes space exploration is important and why he should be selected to appear on “Xploration Station,” a television show on FOX that aims to excite viewers about space exploration and science. Borer, who was a finalist in the contest last year, is seeking support from the UMaine community by liking and sharing his video on Facebook.
