The Matt Gardner Homestead Museum, located in Prospect, Tennessee, is a historic site that offers visitors an opportunity to experience life in rural America during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The museum is situated on the original homestead of Matt Gardner, a former slave who became a successful farmer and businessman. The property includes several original buildings, including Gardner's home, a blacksmith shop, a smokehouse, and a chicken coop.

The museum offers guided tours of the property, which provide visitors with a glimpse into the daily life of a rural family during the early 1900s. The tour includes a visit to the main house, which has been restored to its original condition and features period furnishings and artifacts. Visitors can also see the blacksmith shop, where Gardner and his sons crafted tools and equipment for the farm, as well as the smokehouse, where meat was cured and preserved.

In addition to the guided tours, the museum hosts special events throughout the year, including demonstrations of traditional crafts and skills, such as quilting, spinning, and weaving. The Matt Gardner Homestead Museum is a unique and educational destination for anyone interested in the history of rural America and the experiences of African Americans during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Rockets Away! 2012 Student Launch Projects (NASA, Marshall, 4/22/12) Specially crafted rockets soared high into the skies April 22 at the 2011-12 NASA Student Launch Projects challenge. More than 500 students, representing 53 middle schools, high schools, colleges and universities in 28 states, launched rockets of their own design -- complete with working science payloads or engineering payloads -- at Bragg Farms in Toney, Ala. The students vied to see whose rocket could come closest to the 1-mile altitude goal and safely return its onboard science payload to Earth. Fifty-one teams took part, though two faced mechanical or technical issues and did not launch. Ten preliminary awards were presented, and the grand prize -- $5,000 from ATK Aerospace Group in Salt Lake City, Utah -- will be awarded May 18 after final post-flight analysis and review are complete. This is the fifth year ATK has sponsored Student Launch Projects.
