Are you interested in holding an in-person or virtual event as part of the "Webb Space Telescope Community Events" initiative? NASA can support museums, science centers, planetariums, public libraries, nature centers, visitor's centers, zoos, art galleries, community centers, and other non-profit organizations that communicate or wish to communicate science to the public.
The James Webb Space Telescope (Webb) is scheduled to launch in October 2021 and NASA and its international partners want to help you celebrate this generational moment in our common exploration of the wider universe, through in-person or virtual events as part of the "Webb Space Telescope Community Events" initiative.
