00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:08,000
Très bien. Super job, you guys. You sure did collect a lot of data in your aerosol protocol.

2
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:13,000
Now, don't throw it away because it could be useful to scientists from around the world.

3
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:19,000
Say, how would you like to be a part of a really cool international science program?

4
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:24,000
Well, Dr. Diane Robinson, Calypso Outreach Director from Hampton University,

5
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:28,000
and Dr. Teresa Kennedy with Globe International can tell you more.

6
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:33,000
Thanks, Jennifer. Those are great activities that can be used with Globe and Calypso,

7
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:37,000
the satellite being built right here at the Alcatel building in Cannes, France.

8
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:44,000
If you would like to participate with this experiment or other earth science activities related to satellite observation,

9
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:48,000
the Globe program is actively looking for students to work with scientists worldwide.

10
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:53,000
Globe is a cooperative worldwide effort to collect environmental observations into a large database on the Internet,

11
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:56,000
and we welcome the French to be the newest members to Globe.

12
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:00,000
Students around the world collect real data in all earth science areas.

13
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:05,000
The measurements collected by students are sent to the Globe database via the web or email

14
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:08,000
and used by students and scientists around the world.

15
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:13,000
The student information is used in a real way with the data collected by scientists and satellites

16
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:16,000
to give us a greater idea about how the environment works.

17
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:20,000
Once submitted, these data are publicly available on the Globe website

18
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:23,000
and are displayed graphically with Globe visualization tools.

19
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:28,000
An important aspect of the program is that students are encouraged to communicate directly with Globe scientists

20
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:31,000
to better understand the importance and impact of their data.

21
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:37,000
Another important aspect is that the information you collect can and does make a difference to understanding our world around us.

22
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:45,000
More than a million students in over 14,000 schools have joined the Globe effort, and the numbers are growing.

23
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:51,000
Won't you join the effort? For more information, go to our website at www.globe.gov.

24
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:53,000
Back to you, Jennifer.

25
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,000
Thanks, Diane and Teresa.

26
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:00,000
Well, guys, that wraps up another episode of NASA Connect.

27
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:07,000
Students, don't forget to check out the website for this program's web activities and the student challenge.

28
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:14,000
