Abstract:
The Virtual Guest Program exists to leverage the excitement around launches and milestones to widely disseminate information about Earth and space phenomena through the sharing of information about research on launches, mission objectives, public engagement activities (coloring pages, social media filters) and the like. Using Eventbrite, the program provides registration opportunities for individuals and watch parties so that NASA may provide them specific information they are interested in receiving and to share a detailed slice of NASA's efforts in carrying out it missions and program goal. The information gathered from watch party organizers will help NASA better understand public interest and provide information and opportunities that meet that interest.
