Public engagement
Children & teens
The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) Science Office is an MIT-led NASA mission to discover exoplanets. The Science Office organizes outreach programs specifically related to this mission and its science. The office participates in the Cambridge Science Festival, offers lab tours, and works with local school districts on outreach programs.
Portable Planetariums are taken to local schools for students to lean about our solar system and nearby stars and exoplanets.
