To commemorate this quarter
century of success in engineering, science and culture, NASA's Armstrong Flight
Research Center Office of Education will host an educator workshop to celebrate
the 25th anniversary of the Hubble Space Telescope. Since its launch, Hubble
has allowed astronomers to observe the universe in stunning clarity, revealed
properties of space and time, and shed light on many of the great mysteries of
the universe making conjectures certainties. Learn about NASA's Stratospheric
Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA) aircraft that also explores the
universe with an onboard infrared telescope. Educators will interact with
