Hey, I know this is a longshot, but by any chance do any of you that follow me work at/know someone at JPL? My younger daughter’s 8th grade science teacher is trying to set up a tour there for the kids and isn’t having any luck
Get on any dating app and set your location as Pasadena and you will connect with many JPL employees immediately 😅 (boosting for more normal forms of getting in touch)
Hi. I work there. Did the teacher contact the public engagement office?
maybe @spacejammie.bsky.social might be able to point in the right direction?
Thanks everyone for the assistance, have some promising avenues to follow up on! Appreciate you all!
I bet @philplait.bsky.social knows some folks, too.
I know a couple folks! I’ll pass along your post.
If you haven't made a connection yet, let me know and I can probably help her get to the right people. It requires a *long* lead time to arrange, usually, but if she's got the whole school year it should be possible AFAIK.If you haven't made a connection yet, let me know and I can probably help her get to the right people.

Friend of a friend worked there as recently as last year. If the other avenues don’t come through shoot me a message and we’ll see if they can help.
