Recharging, Reimagining, and Reaching Out

As summer approaches, many of us are looking forward to a much-needed pause from normal routines. Whether you're traveling, diving into hobbies, or finally tackling that growing to-do list at home, the summer months bring a welcome shift—offering time to refresh, reflect, and recharge.

While the school year winds down, NESTA is using this transitional time to focus on strategic planning and organizational growth. We’re preparing for an exciting year ahead—one filled with new initiatives, expanded outreach, and meaningful opportunities for collaboration. Your insights and talents could play a key role in shaping what comes next.

NESTA is growing—our voice is getting stronger, our mission is clearer, and our opportunities are expanding. But with growth comes new tasks, and we can do so much more together. If you’ve been waiting for the right moment to get involved, this is it. See if any of these opportunities speak to you:

·      Are you creative with design tools like Adobe or Canva? We need your eye for branding—think logos, flyers, and fresh visuals.

·      Love video or have experience with platforms like YouTube? Help us grow our digital presence.

·      Social media savvy? Let’s bring Earth and Space science to new audiences through platforms like Instagram or BlueSky.

·      Comfortable in Google Workspace? Help us streamline our administrative tools for a smoother, smarter organization.

·      Excited about NSTA conferences? Help us create unforgettable special events that spotlight what Earth and Space science is all about.

We’re rebranding, relaunching, and reigniting our purpose—to champion Earth and Space science as dynamic, interdisciplinary, and essential. Let’s use this summer not just to unwind, but to reimagine what’s possible.  Please reach-out with a simple email and let’s find the time to chat about how you can help!

Warmly,
Natalie Macke
President, NESTA
