Come join Scott Nowak for a private tour of NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory on June 29, 2026. Space is limited to only 9 members!
T1he Jet Propulsion Laboratory holds a unique place in the universe. They are a
leader in robotic space exploration, sending rovers to Mars, probes into the
farthest reaches of the solar system, and satellites to advance understanding of
our home planet.
JPL works on missions to investigate the surface and interior of Venus
and to study the ocean deep below the icy crust of Jupiter’s moon Europa. JPL
is taking part in missions to map Earth’s surface and to chart minute
movements of the planet’s ice and land-covered surfaces. From Earth to the
solar system to the limits of our universe, JPL drives to the forefront of scientific
discovery; they benefit humanity through their missions, innovations, and
research, inviting people everywhere to imagine what is possible.
Managed by Caltech, JPL is NASA’s only federally funded research and
development center.
Expect to see the JPL Control Center, “the Official Center of the Universe”,
work in progress on the ASTROS Antarctic Balloon Mission, and the Mars
Yard where ground model Mars Rovers are tested.
