Earth Day at Union Station

This year’s Earth Day event featured almost 20 activities designed to increase knowledge about the world around us.

Throughout the two-day event, NASA scientists and educators presented amazing animations using NASA’s cutting-edge Hyperwall and guided individuals as they participated in numerous hands-on activities related to Earth processes.

Some scheduled activities and events included:

• A 3D visualization that lets you “fly along” with NASA’s Earth science missions and observe climate data from a global perspective
• A digital photo booth where you can get your face in space and leave with a cool NASA science image
• The opportunity to meet and get an autograph from a NASA astronaut on April 22
