Free monthly column available from NASA to newspapers

Most elementary-age children are interested in space exploration. But how often do they find information about the very latest space discoveries and space technologies written especially for them?
    
The short monthly columns provided by NASA's award-winning Space Place outreach program give newspaper editors a no-cost source of accurate, up-to-date, and highly readable information for their youngest readers.
       
The columns are about 300 words and include a high-resolution image with a suggested caption to support and enhance the text. They are written at 4th or 5th grade level.

The columns are offered free of charge. But editors are asked to send a tear sheet each time an article is used.

To receive this monthly column for publication in your newspaper, contact Nancy Leon at nancy.j.leon@jpl.nasa.gov or (818) 354-1067.
