NASA Education And Public Outreach Group
NASA's Education and Public Outreach (E/PO) group at Sonoma State University, founded in 1999, is a provider of educational materials for students, educators, scientists, and the public.

In addition to those four NASA missions, E/PO is also working an CanSat project for secondary school students and an online college cosmology course equivalent to a second year undergraduate astronomy course. Fermi Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope is an international and multi-agency mission that was launched in 2008. The main Fermi E/PO website is: http://fermi.sonoma.edu/. Resourc ...
