Even a world-famous organization such as NASA needs to take care of publicity once in a while. Despite the fact that they were responsible for several of the most-publicized and famous events in human history, NASA has recently faced challenges eliciting interest from a public that has come to view space exploration and development as a second tier concern, compared with the very down to Earth problems that beset our daily lives.

In order to attract a steady stream of visitors and light up the imaginations of young and old alike, the visitor center at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center has recently decided to invest in programmable LED signs as a dynamic and eye-catching way to advertise exhibits and events to the surrounding community.

The Goddard Space Flight Center was established in 1959, and has, for many years, been the largest center for space related research and engineering in America. Aside from designing and building spacecraft, the center also undertakes many projects in astrophysics, including investigations into the nature of black holes and the origin of the Solar System. The Center's website features ...
... a cornucopia of interesting discoveries and information, including breathtaking photographs from the Hubble space telescope, as well as updates on astronomy and climate science research. Recently, scientists at the Center found a clever way to use lightning storms to investigate the chemical composition of the atmosphere, research that, they say, can provide an insight into the Solar System's origins and formation.

The visitor center at Goddard, in addition to a large number of photographs and equipment on display, features a number of multimedia experiences that give visitors a closer look both at the challenges and rewards of space exploration. The Center's decision to place LED signs outdoor s in order to make announcements and attract visitors fits within the context of NASA as both a driver and user of technology.

Expert sign maker Kerley took out the old sign, which was nothing more than a plastic box, and replaced it with a sharp LED sign that can be used to show static images and video alike. Upcoming satellite launches can now be announced with exciting graphics, and the launch itself can potentially be broadcast on the sign. The sign's Watchfire Led elements are not only bright, but also weatherproof and rated for operation in temperatures of up to 140 degrees – a must during hot Maryland summers.

Every business or institution, from a space agency to a restaurant, can benefit from the visibility boost provided by dynamic and attractive LED signs. With Kerley's experience and commitment to quality, you will reap the benefits on your investment for many years to come.
