NASA SEEKS EDUCATION PARTNERS TO HELP INSPIRE THE NEXT GENERATION OF EXPLORERS

WASHINGTON -- NASA is seeking partners to help achieve its strategic 
goals for education, including informal education done at museums, 
science centers, and planetariums. The agency is committed to sharing 
the excitement of NASA's space-based missions and inspiring students 
of all ages to pursue studies in science, technology, engineering and 
mathematics. 

NASA seeks unfunded partnerships with organizations to engage new or 
broader audiences on a national scale. The agency will work 
collaboratively to leverage partners' unique resources. 

Potential partnership activities are varied. NASA is receptive to a 
broad range of possibilities from creative organizations with 
wide-ranging areas of expertise. All categories of domestic entities, 
including U.S. federal government agencies, are eligible to respond. 
NASA will accept proposals through Dec. 31.
