Marvel Studios THOR: RAGNAROK Superpower of STEM Challenge

Marvel Studios is encouraging girls to unleash the power of STEM as part of the promotion of their upcoming movie THOR: RAGNAROK.  Between now and September 23, girls aged 15 - 18 in grades 10 - 12 living within the United States can submit an original STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) inspired Do-It-Yourself project for a chance to win a trip to Log Angeles.  Five finalists will be selected to present their projects in person to a panel of experts and attend the Red Carpet Premiere of Marvel Studios' THOR: RAGNAROK.

One grand-prize winner will be selected from the five finalists to attend an immersive three-day mentorship in New York City with Disney Imagineering to build her STEM story, creating a professional-level video teaching other young people how to recreate her Challenge-winning project. The winner will also have the opportunity to demonstrate her Superpower of STEM project live to the nation with a brief appearance on Good Morning America. (The Walt Disney Company is the parent company of Good Morning America / ABC News.) The video created during her mentorship will be made available to students, teachers and families worldwide on the American Association for the Advancement of Science education resource website ScienceNetLinks.com.

In Marvel Studios’ THOR: RAGNAROK, Thor is imprisoned on the other side of the universe without his mighty hammer and finds himself in a race against time to get back to Asgard to stop Ragnarok—the destruction of his homeworld and the end of Asgardian civilization—at the hands of an all-powerful new threat, the ruthless Hela. But first he must survive a deadly gladiatorial contest that pits him against his former ally and fellow Avenger—the Incredible Hulk! THOR: RAGNAROK thunders into movie theaters across the US on November 3, 2017.  The film is directed by Taika Waititi and returns Chris Hemsworth starring as Thor and Tom Hiddleston reprising his role as Loki. They are joined by Cate Blanchett, Idris Elba, Jeff Goldblum, Tessa Thompson and Karl Urban, with Mark Ruffalo and Anthony Hopkins.
