This quick response was followed by the formation of the Northeast High School Project SPARC Boosters (http://www.nehssparcboosters.org/) to help ensure SPARC's long-term financial sustainability. SPARC students have embraced their legacy and continue to build on SPARC's history. Two additional missions were conducted during the 2014–15 academic year with a return trip to the moon in December 2014 and a mission to Mars in April 2015. Project SPARC membership includes more than 130 students classified as full-time members. These students have regular responsibilities in the areas of their specialties and they conduct all of the research and operational activities.
