NASA Citizen Science Month Event

Spotlight Chats are a series of moderated discussions with leaders across government highlighting success stories and lessons learned.

In celebration of Citizen Science Month, join us for a Spotlight Chat with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). You’ll hear from NASA Astrophysicist and Citizen Science Officer Marc Kuchner as he discusses how NASA focuses on the science of citizen/participatory science and why they use the terms “citizen or participatory science.”

NASA is leading 32 active projects across their different divisions: astrophysics, biological, and physical sciences. You’ll get to hear updates on some of these exciting citizen science projects. NASA has more than 400 volunteer citizen scientists, some who have been co-authors on published scientific papers.

There will also be a facilitated Q&A session.
