[b]JPL Open House[/b] Saturday, October 11 and Sunday, October 12, 2014 9 a.m to 4.p.m NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, California, invites the public to its [URL=http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/events/open-house.php]annual Open House[/URL]. The event, themed "Welcome to Our Universe," will take visitors on a "ride" through the wonders of space. Highlights include a life-size model of Mars Science Laboratory, demonstrations from numerous space missions; JPL's machine shop, where robotic spacecraft parts are built; and the Microdevices Lab, where engineers and scientists use tiny technology to revolutionize space exploration. The Earth Science Center will show 3-D videos of our home planet and JPL's Earth science missions. Upon entering, visitors will pass an Earth globe with data from NASA's Earth-orbiting satellites projected onto the sphere. JPL is located at 4800 Oak Grove Drive, Pasadena, California, 91109. Admission to Open House is free. Parking is also free, but is limited. To get to JPL, take the Berkshire Avenue/Oak Grove Drive exit from the 210 Freeway in La Canada/Flintridge. All visitors should wear comfortable shoes — no buses will be provided from JPL parking lots. JPL will provide vans for mobility-challenged guests.
