Bidrage med feedbackI have had the opportunity to visit him a couple of years ago and the place is great, and to know that you walk through those places and close to people who make possible many of the discoveries and advances in when space is referred to, is even more great.
NASA is awesome and the history of this place is amazing. The public visitoocenter is easy to find and fun to enjoy.
There are no words to describe how incredible it is to be able to know a NASA building, especially JPL, where extremely competent people come together for the sake of science for the evolution of humanity. The building itself is from Caltech, but everything that is done in it is for NASA, so it can be said to be in fact in it. The guided tour is for hardcore nerds, lasts 3 hours and has a lot of explanation. I was fascinated and ended the tours wishing there was more, but my wife was tired at the end of the tour. So consider this, not for everyone, but even tired, my wife loved the visit. No wonder, it is a great privilege to know a little more about the place that sends probes and satellites into space, it is the central control of everything that man sent to space and is from the moon ahead, with people who are very serious about everything they do, being able to see it all up close is a tremendous privilege, especially for children, who can get in touch with such deep subjects while they are very young. The souvenir shop is also very cool, several authentic NASA swags to flaunt around the world. Plan your visit in advance and schedule on the site, do not miss the opportunity to meet the JPL! Português BR Não existem palavras para descrever o quão incrível é poder conhecer um prédio da NASA, especialmente o que abriga a JPL, onde pessoas extremamente competentes se juntam em prol da ciência para a evolução da humanidade. O prédio em si é da Caltech, mas tudo que é feito nele é para NASA, então pode se afirmar que se está de fato nela. O tour guiado é para nerds hardcore, dura 3 horas e tem muita explicação. Eu fiquei fascinado e achei pouco, minha esposa estava cansada no final do tour. Então leve isso em consideração, não é para todos os gostos, mas mesmo cansada, minha esposa adorou a visita. Também não é para menos, é um privilégio muito grande poder conhecer um pouco mais do lugar que manda sondas e satélites para o espaço, é o controle central de tudo aquilo que o homem mandou pro espaço e está da Lua à diante, com pessoas que tem uma seriedade muito grande em tudo aquilo que fazem, poder ver tudo isso de perto é um privilégio enorme, especialmente para as crianças, que podem entrar em contato com assuntos tão profundos enquanto ainda são bem jovens. A lojinha também é bem legal, vários swags autênticos da NASA para ostentar mundo afora. Planeje antecipadamente a sua visita e agende no site, não perca a oportunidade de conhecer a JPL!
Great experience. Must see if you can get general tour reservations.
I’ve had the pleasure to visit JPL a few times over the years. It’s amazing that such engineering feats and scientific discoveries have been made so close to home. As an outsider to engineering and tech, this campus goes out of its way to welcome guests and employees alike with captivating exhibits and thorough, easy to read signage and explanations. The employees are thoughtful and interesting characters to say the least…if you know one, try having them host you for a private tour. I need to come back for one of their regularly hosted outreach talks and other public events. As they say in the space community, Ad Astra!
