SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Abstract

    The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is 
committed to effectively performing the Agency's communication function 
in accordance with the Space Act section 203(a)(3) to ``provide for the 
widest practicable and appropriate dissemination of information 
concerning its activities and the results there of,'' and to enhance 
public understanding of, and participation in, the nation's space 
program in accordance with the NASA Strategic Plan. The Space Act of 
1958, directs the Agency to expand human knowledge of Earth and space 
phenomena. Organizing outreach events is one way NASA intends to 
leverage excitement about the nation's space program and expand human 
knowledge of Earth and space phenomena. In order to organize effective 
outreach events and registration opportunities for members of the 
public, it is necessary to collect information from perspective guests 
and those that will check-in the guests at events. The NASA Special 
Events System is a tool to allow invitees to register for and check-in 
to NASA event opportunities (launch viewing, agency engagements, etc.) 
in a single location.

II. Methods of Collection

    The NASA Special Events tool is a web-based application on a 
Salesforce platform that enables the NASA OCOMM team to manage guest 
information, communication, and reporting agency-wide. The intent of 
using electronic collection techniques is to increase the accuracy of 
information gathered and to streamline the process for guests and 
workforce alike.
