Earth Information Center Opening Ceremony at NASA Headquarters (Official NASA Broadcast)

Watch the opening and ribbon-cutting ceremony for the Earth Information Center at NASA Headquarters in Washington. The exhibit is a hybrid – part physical, part online – effort that shows how viewing Earth from space can improve lives in the face of disasters, environmental challenges, and climate change. Speakers include NASA Administrator Bill Nelson; Kate Calvin, NASA chief scientist and senior climate advisor; and Karen St. Germain, the director of NASA’s Earth Sciences Division. Agency partner representatives will also speak.

NASA created the Earth Information Center with founding partners National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and Federal Emergency Management Administration (FEMA).
