Chicago Meets Outer Space program

The symposium included personal appearances by NASA astronauts, NASA exhibits, souvenir photos for each student attending the symposium, live demonstrations of how the Communication Technology Satellite links the U. S. with people around the world, and talks on job opportunities in aerospace and on the benefits of space. Monday through Friday, the program was directed mainly at (public, parochial and private) student groups, each of which spent a half day on the CSU campus to participate in the symposium activities. On Saturday and Sunday, the symposium was open to the general public and consisted of the NASA exhibits, films, a shorter version of the lectures and a special demonstration and tasting opportunity of space food meal systems. These quick meal systems that were designed for senior citizens.
