More than 200 students at the St. Louis Science Center spoke with Expedition 56 flight engineer Dr. Serena M. Auñón-Chancellor during an education downlink with the International Space Station. The downlink - the first ever conducted at the St. Louis Science Center – was part of a day-long event celebrating the 60th anniversary of NASA, as well as the upcoming 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing. Orbiting nearly 250 miles above Earth, Auñón-Chancellor answered questions about living and working in space, while inspiring students to pursue careers in the STEM fields of science, technology, engineering and math. #NASA60th #Apollo11

@NASAGoddard : RT @NASAblueshift: Two of our favorite @NASAGoddard astrophysics contributions? The Cosmic Background Explorer’s 1992 measurement of the cosmic microwave background, and the 2017 detection of gamma rays and gravitational waves from the same merging neutron stars. What are your favorites? #NASA60th t.co/3dHvpryDKx (via Twitter twitter.com/NASAGoddard/status/1047106646659489792)

@NASAGoddard : Happy Birthday #NASA. 60 has never looked better!🎉🎂 From the beginning, Goddard has worked to support our agency’s work of uncovering the universe 🌃. Here are a few ways Goddard has helped along the way. #NASA60th t.co/QW38Uik8Nt (via Twitter twitter.com/NASAGoddard/status/1046842919716638726)

@NASAGoddard : 1983: Tracking and Data Relay Satellite-1 launched aboard space shuttle Challenger on April 4, 1983. This was NASA’s first step toward building a space communications network with nearly continuous coverage. #NASA60th t.co/V4kIsVyKJL (via Twitter twitter.com/NASAGoddard/status/1046847954227789825)

@NASAGoddard : As we approach the #NASA60th anniversary on October 1, let's look at how it all began—with the passage of the National Aeronautics and Space Act of 1958 and the absorbing into NASA of the National Advisory Committee on Aeronautics.
