NASA SpacePlace Articles

NASA has recently contacted notable astronomy clubs to invite them to participate in their monthly Space Place column program. Accompanied with high-quality graphics, this column is offered free to members of the ASNSW.

NASA created the Space Place program to give the public the opportunity to explore the space program's technological advancements and delve into its discoveries. The columns include varied topics from all of the areas within NASA -- planetary exploration, of course, but also observing Earth from space, and even spinoffs from space. Podcasts can also be found here.
