NASA Communication Outreach (NCO)
Where is the NASA Data?
NASA channel on YouTube has approx. 1.2 M Subscribers and 6K-14K views per video. However the NASA's Open Data Portal has data sets with only 19 views which is low in comparison. We want to change this.
Problem:
Most videos on YouTube are not taking advantage of directly linking to NASA data for viewers to simply click and explore further.
Solution:
NASA Staff joins the new NASA Communication Outreach (NCO) initiative. The Scientist which whom we trust create and post a 3 minute video overview and then also link specific links to the NASA data where viewer can simply click for more detailed data.
Using web analytics we can see how views are increasing for the data. We want to bring science data to the people, and the people to the science. Join us on this initiative to increase NASA data awareness.
