Virtual Tour Training with Infiniscope

Virtual Tour Training with Infiniscope


Infiniscope welcomed over 170 educators to our summer Virtual Tour Workshop held July 19 - July 22, 2021. Virtual tours increase accessibility to place-based education and enable educators to create immersive digital experiences that are tailored to the needs of their learners. This four-day workshop trained educators on all aspects of creating virtual tours from developing a sense of place to capturing 360-degree images. Many NASA associated entities participated in this training: Arctic SIGNS, Aurorasaurus, Astromaterials, Smoky Mountain STEM collaborative, Desert Research Institute, and Stennis to name a few. Throughout the workshop, participants collaborated and supported each other in developing their tours and incorporating NASA science in creative ways. We look forward to sharing their catalog of virtual tours in the near future.

NASA’s CloudSat Ends Mission Peering Into the Heart of Clouds

Over the course of nearly two decades, its powerful radar provided never-before-seen details of clouds and helped advance global weather and climate predictions. CloudSat, a NASA mission that peered into hurricanes, tallied global snowfall rates, and achieved other weather and climate firsts, has ended its operations. Originally proposed as a 22-month mission, the spacecraft was […]

NASA’s Near Space Network Enables PACE Climate Mission to ‘Phone Home’

The PACE (Plankton, Aerosol, Cloud, ocean Ecosystem) mission has delivered its first operational data back to researchers, a feat made possible in part by innovative, data-storing technology from NASA’s Near Space Network, which introduced two key enhancements for PACE and other upcoming science missions. As a satellite orbits in space, its systems generate critical data […]

The image is divided horizontally by an undulating line between a cloudscape forming a nebula along the bottom portion and a comparatively clear upper portion. Speckled across both portions is a starfield, showing innumerable stars of many sizes. The smallest of these are small, distant, and faint points of light. The largest of these appear larger, closer, brighter, and more fully resolved with 8-point diffraction spikes. The upper portion of the image is blueish, and has wispy translucent cloud-like streaks rising from the nebula below. The orangish cloudy formation in the bottom half varies in density and ranges from translucent to opaque. The stars vary in color, the majority of which have a blue or orange hue. The cloud-like structure of the nebula contains ridges, peaks, and valleys – an appearance very similar to a mountain range. Three long diffraction spikes from the top right edge of the image suggest the presence of a large star just out of view.
