Building vibrant communities of enthusiasts is an integral part of NASA’s success. With Veronica in the lead, NASA-JPL attracted an audience of millions with captivating content – and without spending a single dollar on post promotion.

Fasten your headsets because NASA is turning to immersive tools like 360 video, augmented reality, and web-based virtual reality to transform mission data into shared virtual experiences.
