Open to the public!
National Mall (Washington Monument)—April 17, 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM; April 18, 12:00 PM – 5:00 PM
Union Station (Main Hall)—April 21-22; 10:00 AM – 5:00 PM both days
In commemoration of the 45th anniversary of Earth Day, NASA is teaming with Earth Day Network to share stories with the public about how the agency uses the vantage point of space to achieve a deep scientific understanding of our home planet, the sun and its effects on the solar system, other planets and solar system bodies, the interplanetary environment, and the universe beyond.
Events will take place in Washington, DC at the National Mall, April 17-18, and Union Station, April 21-22. NASA’s Science Gallery and a variety of hands-on demonstrations and activities will be offered at both venues.
On the official Earth Day (April 22) there will be several live presentations in front of NASA’s Hyperwall—a nine-screen video wall capable of displaying multiple high-definition data visualizations and/or images simultaneously. Also on April 22, a NASA astronaut will be signing autographs and answering questions about what it was like to view Earth from space.
We hope tosee you in Washington, DC to celebrate Earth Day!
