Orbit Earth Expo launched in Georgia in 2013. The program grew to include South Carolina in 2015. Teachers and administrators love the alignment to SC College & Career Ready Standards for Science and the unforgettable reference for students. These hard to teach concepts in earth and space science are a snap for students when they are recalling information for SC Ready testing after experiencing Orbit Earth Expo!

Orb, along with his sun, George, and his appropriately scaled moon, travel to schools with their teacher friends, Mr. Out of This World (Terrence Parson) and Deon Mack.

Terrence was born and raised in NC. He enjoys traveling around the world, meeting new and interesting people. His time spent studying abroad and becoming immersed in the culture of others has shaped his character. His knowledge and passion for motivating youth make him relatable to students without losing their respect.  He has been called to use his passion for science to cultivate a commitment to empowering the next generation. His life and experience will continue to motivate and inspire our youth for the future.

Raised in Fayetteville, North Carolina, Deon Mack holds a Bachelor of Science in Chemistry from Norfolk State University and a Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) in Chemistry from Kennesaw State University. With a diverse professional background as a classroom science teacher, academic coach, and instructional coach, he is dedicated to using innovative methods to make science both accessible and exciting for every student he meets. Sharing the magic of these STEM programs with tens of thousands of students each year is rewarding and fun!
