NASA TO HOST 75 SOCIAL MEDIA FOLLOWERS AT DRYDEN NASA SOCIAL

EDWARDS, Calif. -- NASA will host 75 social media followers May 4 to
go behind-the-scenes and learn more about NASA aeronautics, science
and other projects at the agency's Dryden Flight Research Center on
Edwards Air Force Base in California.

Dryden is NASA's primary center for atmospheric flight research and
operations. Its remote location in the western Mojave Desert is
uniquely situated for excellent year-round weather and visibility to
test innovative air vehicles.

The event begins at 7:30 a.m. PDT and will include tours of current
aircraft and presentations on cutting-edge aeronautical research and
science projects. Not only will guests learn about sonic booms, they
could experience one first-hand.

Dryden's NASA Social registration opens at 8 a.m. PDT on Monday, April
9, and closes at noon on Wednesday, April 11. NASA will randomly
select 75 participants from online registrations.

A NASA Social is an event for people who use NASA's social media
accounts. For this event, fans and followers on Twitter, Facebook and
Google+ are eligible to register. Each participant must be 18 or
older and a U.S. citizen.
