 Space Day in Pulaski County started as an offshoot of Lockheed Martin's Space Day educational initiative, which has ties to NASA.    Over 30,000 children and their parents attended the national Space Day celebration at the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum in Washington, D.C. Among the many events were a showing of the new Star Trek XI movie at the IMAX theater and talks with autograph signing by the 7 NASA Astronauts in attendance. |
