i° the right thing.As spacescientists,we seekto chartthe evolutionof the universeandto understandits galaxies,stars, © planetarybodies,andlife.As public servants,we havea responsibilityto sharethe excitementand knowledgegenerated D by our discoverieswith the Americanpublic andto use them to help improvescience educationthroughoutthe Nation. Thisnaturalpartnershipamongspacescienceresearch,scienceeducation,andpublicoutreachis our motivationfor mak- O_ ing Educationand PublicOutreach(E/PO)an integral elementof all NASAOfficeof SpaceScience(OSS)flight missions andresearchprograms.It is an importantpart of everythingwe do. c-

Overthe past sevenyears,we haveexploredways to work with the spacescienceresearchcommunityso that our sci- © entistscould makeeffective contributionsto E/PO.We built E/POinto everyflight missionand researchprogramso that 0 we would havethe resourcesnecessaryto carry out an extensiveset of E/POactivities.We developedStrategicand C- r-t- ImplementationPlansto establisha frameworkand give a directionto all thoseE/POactivities.Weestablishedan E/PO SupportNetworkto buildbridgesbetweenthe spacescienceandeducationcommunitiesandto find opportunitiesfor sci- O entiststo contributeto E/PO.Allof theseactivitiesarenow payingoff.The resultsaredisplayedin thisfirst AnnualReport D- onOSSF_/POactivities. > D I am veryproudof what we haveaccomplished.Fullcredit for all the thingsthat havebeendonegoesto the NASAstaff, the spacesciencecommunity,andthe educatorswho havededicatedthemselvesto makingOSS'sE/POprograma real- C ity anda success.Thesehighly visible contributionsto NASA'soverall EducationProgramare a fundamentalpart of our investmentinAmerica'sfuture. 0 D ©
