GST hosted a virtual booth for the 101st American Meteorological Society (AMS) annual conference, and our visualization experts made NASA’s exhibit look great.

At the December 2020 American Geophysical Union (AGU) conference, GST’s GESTAR NASA Science Support Office team coordinated the virtual NASA Science exhibit and supported its Science Theater, which included 75 YouTube presentations, live daily chats, and curated resources from across the Science Mission Directorate.

GST continually supports organizations that provide resources to people in need. GST had originally pledged to match up to $10k in employee donations to those experiencing economic hardship during COVID back in May.
