The Image/Poetry Education and Public Outreach Program

  • Chapter
The Image Mission

Abstract

Education and public outreach are viewed by NASA as significant undertakings for all of its space missions. The IMAGE satellite is one of the first missions to explicitly include ‘E&PO’ in its original proposal to NASA in 1996. We will discuss what IMAGE has accomplished in this area to date, and what new activities it will conduct following a successful launch.
