This is an excerpt from the initial email:

NASA created the Space Place program to give the public the opportunity to explore the space program's technological advancements and delve into its discoveries. A component of that outreach, the Space Place column is offered to select venues like astronomy associations. Our column includes varied topics from all of the areas within NASA -- planetary exploration, of course, but also observing earth from space, and even spinoffs from space.

In addition, The NASA Space Place program has two Web sites aimed at children but equally as fun and educational for adults. We invite you to explore these web sites at http://spaceplace.nasa.gov/ or the Spanish version at http://spaceplace.nasa.gov/espanol.
