Thanks NASA & everyone involved.
Depending on whether these grants are for 1st or 2nd regionals that's a donation of between $672,000 and $1,008,000, just for this set of grants. Couple this with the 50+ space center grants, support for events, the house teams, and everything else NASA does and you get see they're approaching an astronomical (i love puns) number.

Mind boggling. Thanks once again to NASA.
