Boosting Inclusivity Workshop

Boosting Inclusivity Workshop


NASA Science Activation teams Planetary Planetary Resources and Content Heroes (Planetary ReaCH) and NASA SMD Community of Practice for Education (SCoPE) came together March 15th to host a virtual workshop titled “Boosting Inclusivity in Educational Outreach”. This workshop was a peripheral event of the annual Lunar and Planetary Science Conference and was open to planetary scientists of all levels.

Participants experienced an educational asset first-hand with one of five additional SciAct teams (Challenger Center, Infiniscope, NASA Astromaterials, Night Sky Network, and PLANETS) and analyzed it collaboratively using the inclusive strategies detailed by Planetary ReaCH co-I Christine Shupla. To join us at future training events or to find a Science Activation collaboration, connect with us at scope.asu.edu and lpi.usra.edu/planetary-reach.

NASA’s Perseverance Rover Reaches Top of Jezero Crater Rim

The road ahead will be even more scientifically intriguing, and probably somewhat easier-going, now that the six-wheeler has completed its long climb to the top. NASA’s Perseverance Mars rover has crested the top of Jezero Crater’s rim at a location the science team calls “Lookout Hill” and rolling toward its first science stop after the […]

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.
