Akin to the efforts of NSF's Criterion II, the NASA Office of Space Science (OSS) has been increasing the involvement of its scientific research community in Education and Public Outreach (EPO). The NASA OSS EPO strategy and implementation plan both call for EPO to become an integral part of the space science community's professional activities. Every OSS flight project (e.g., Hubble Space Telescope, Mars Pathfinder, etc.) is now required to have a significant EPO program (1-2% of the overall mission budget, including spacecraft, mission operations, and data analysis). In addition, smaller OSS research grant proposals have the option of including EPO segments up to \$10K per year. In support of these efforts, we are continuing work on a web-based Menu of Opportunities for Scientists in Education (MOSIE). The MOSIE website is primarily intended for NASA-funded space scientists who win research awards and who wish to have concrete ideas for involvement in a related Education and Public Outreach program. MOSIE is intended to help facilitate scientist partnerships with educators in high-impact space science EPO projects. It will provide information about programs that scientists can plug into, as well as examples and ideas for EPO proposals. Programs listed in MOSIE will include both ongoing, nationally distributed opportunities for space scientist participation, as well as regional examples specific to one area. If you would like your program included in MOSIE, please contact Dr. Cherilynn Morrow at camorrow@colorado.edu. This work is being supported by the NASA Office of Space Science EPO Broker/Facilitator program whose chief aim is to support the EPO efforts of the space science community in partnership with EPO professionals.
