One of the most exciting aspects of this project is the opportunity to get university and school-children involved, both in Peru and throughout the rest of the world. They will be encouraged to follow the mission via the internet and to participate in special projects to devise and design their own experiments or equipment. There are many different aspects to the Airship Nazca survey, not just the archaeology but also history, mathematics, geography, science, the environment, meteorology, photography and art.
In addition some students will have the opportunity to come to Nazca to fly in the airship to observe and conduct their own studies at first hand.

And when the on-site survey has been completed the Airship Nazca team will be working closely with the University of Bristol to handle and disseminate the data and images obtained, creating a major educational resource available to researchers throughout the world. Tie-ins with published and broadcast media will further serve to bring the Nazca story to a wide international audience through television documentaries, books, magazines and internet.
