NASA at the New York Stock Exchange

From #NASA:

We're at the New York Stock Exchange, where we rang the closing bell to mark the end of trading on June 4, 2015 and to raise awareness for the research underway on the International Space Station.

Never in the history of spaceflight has potential for economic growth been so widespread or space so accessible to American industry, researchers, innovators and explorers.

Today, American companies are sending hundreds of experiments to orbit that improve products and benefit our lives on Earth. Students are monitoring satellites of their own design while scientists are studying Earth right now, in real-time, from orbit. NASA astronauts are advancing the knowledge we need to send humans on our Journey to Mars. It's a reality made possible by the International Space Station and the U.S. commercial space industry, opening the high frontier of space.
