Central Florida scouts earn coveted nuclear science merit badge

Original: Central Florida students ‘scout’ out coveted nuclear science merit badge

Students in Central Florida have completed requirements for the Boy Scouts of America's nuclear science merit badge, one of the more difficult badges to earn. The program, supported by personnel from the U.S. Air Force's 16th Air Force, gave scouts hands-on exposure to nuclear science concepts, radiation basics and career paths in technical fields.

Why now: The military announced a youth STEM outreach event connecting scouts with nuclear science education.
