Today
is Veterans Day
“At
NASA, we owe a great debt of gratitude to those military veterans
who have brought their knowledge, skills and commitment to achieving
great deeds through dedicated teamwork to our Agency. We’re
also quite proud of the astronauts who served or currently serve
in our nation’s military. This Veterans Day [today], please
reflect on the contributions of America’s veterans. The legacy
of America’s veterans is something we all share, and we can
all take pride in their dedication and service.” —
Sean O'Keefe, Administrator
2nd
Annual Geographic Information System (GIS) Day Celebration
On Nov. 19, the 2nd Annual Cape Canaveral Spaceport GIS Day will
be held around the Center. Sponsored by the SGS Real Property
Information Systems Office, the event coincides with the National
Geographic Society’s GIS Day 2003, promoting geographic
literacy in schools, communities and organizations, as well as
teaching the world about GIS technology. SGS/JBOSC wants to demonstrate
how GIS technology is used at the Spaceport, with presentations,
demonstrations and exhibits at the KSC HQ Lobby and OSB Lobby,
and CCAFS E&L Building. For details, visit the web site http://gis.ksc.nasa.gov
