For our May 13 Second Saturday we'll be having some stellar fun with Observing With NASA, a special exhibit kiosk from from the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory that engages visitors in the art and science of NASA imagery. The first 75 visitors to create a cool space image on the kiosk will get a special prize! ✨🪐🔭 Observing With NASA offers an introduction to the tools, data, and skills that NASA space scientists and data visualization experts use to create the images of deep space objects that we all know and love. The kiosk features a range of NASA’s most iconic images to explore and opportunities for visitors to put their own artistic spin on these images through image analysis and processing. The Observing With NASA project is a partnership between the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory and Smithsonian Affiliations, supported by NASA award number 80NSSC19M0158. On display @ IAM through May 28, 2023!
