 SERCH Fact
DEEP IMPACT is a radical mission to excavate the interior of a comet to launch in 2004 as part of NASA's Discovery Program. The Deep Impact mission will send a 350-kilogram (770-pound) copper projectile into comet 9P/Tempel 1, creating a crater as big as a football field and as deep as a seven-story building. A camera and infrared spectrometer on the spacecraft, along with ground-based observatories, will study the resulting icy debris blasted off the comet, as well as the pristine interior material exposed by the impact. Visit the Deep Impact mission website to learn more.

Overview of 2003 SERCH Funding Opportunity
The goal of this SERCH initiative is to support education/outreach initiatives that increase the awareness and understanding of the four major scientific themes/forums of NASA's OSS.
SERCH is particularly interested in proposals for education/outreach efforts that support the education mission of OSS and NASA. Furthermore, SERCH is interested in proposals for education/outreach efforts that support our operating principles, which include:

Establishing strong and lasting partnerships between the space science and education communities.
Highly leveraged programs/projects, relying upon a multiplier effect to reach as many communities, teachers, and students as possible.
Being inclusive of the broadest possible audience. Activities that foster the meaningful participation of underserved/underrepresented groups are encouraged.
