Jet Propulsion Laboratory's Open House
This popular event will celebrate JPL's accomplishments with
exhibits and demonstrations about the Laboratory's ongoing
research and space exploration. Many of the Lab's scientists
and engineers will be on hand to answer questions about how
spacecraft are sent to other planets, how scientists utilize space
technologies to explore Earth and how researchers are now
searching for planets beyond the solar system. Visitors will see
exhibits, displays, demonstrations and presentations about new
technologies, solar system exploration, spacecraft
communication and much more.
The Open House is a fun and educational experience for children
too, with special hands-on activities designed for kids. Food and
beverages will be available, along with space souvenirs and
NASA and JPL merchandise.
Admission is free. No backpacks or ice chests are allowed,
with the exception of small purses and diaper bags. Visitors,
vehicles and personal belongings are subject to inspection. JPL
is located at 4800 Oak Grove Drive in Pasadena, off the 210
(Foothill) Freeway at the Berkshire Avenue/Oak Grove Drive exit.
Parking is available near the Oak Grove main gate and on the
eastern boundary of JPL, accessible from Windsor Avenue via the
Arroyo Boulevard exit off the 210 Freeway. Air-conditioned buses
will run non-stop between all lots and JPL's main gate. Buses and
tour guides will move people between different locations around
the facility. Walking is required to some locations. So make plans now to visit JPL and experience the thrill of space exploration!
