Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) Tour
Hosted by the Swiss-American Chamber of Commerce Southern California Chapter
The Swiss-American Chamber is thrilled to offer our members the opportunity to visit JPL on a tour. Come see the facilities where rockets and robotics are made, launched and returned from space. We'll also be treated to a multimedia presentation on JPL entitled "Journey to the Planets and Beyond," which provides an overview of the Laboratory's activities and accomplishments. Guests may also visit the von Karman Visitor Center, the Space Flight Operations Facility, and the Spacecraft Assembly Facility.
If you'd like to join, please email Veronica Besmer at vbesmer@saccla.org with CC to veronica@besmer.com. We'll need your full name and citizenship. If you are not a U.S. national, you must bring your foreign passport or greencard, as the case may be.
The visitor roster closes by Tuesday, Nov. 12 close of business, so please email us as soon as possible.
