In addition to the mission's primary objectives to space test new technology and measure elements of the atmosphere, it also has the important goal of providing information for education and public outreach (EPO). These EPO elements include programs for kindergarten through undergraduate and graduate education, under-represented and under-served groups, teacher professional development, and the general public.
