AIMSTAR Information Solutions, Inc. donated copies of its Earth Science software to NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center's (GSFC) Educator Resource Center. This donation was requested by the NASA GSFC Educator Resource Center's coordinator because an earlier donation had been so well received. The software is slated to be used in an upcoming workshop.
