Q: Is ProjectExplorer.org really free?
Yes! Thanks to our generous corporate sponsors, supporters and donors, ProjectExplorer.org is provided at NO cost; all we ask of you is please take a moment to register to provide some very basic information that will help us tailor our tools and resources to our audience.

One of the wonderful things about being a web-based program is that we are able to update our materials. By registering, you will be notified when new film segments are added to current programs and previous expeditions.

Q: How can I request a school visit from the ProjectExplorer.org team?
Currently, ProjectExplorer.org is visiting schools in the metro NYC area. The fee for an all-day school visit (up to 4 presentations) is $500. Single classroom visits are also available. All fees cover travel and expenses for the ProjectExplorer.org team.

As part of our ongoing community outreach, ProjectExplorer.org offers several opportunities each year for low or no-cost school visits. If you are interested in having the ProjectExplorer.org team visit your school, please contact us education@projectexplorer.org

Q: How do I report and error or typo?
