NASA ‘Goes to the Stars’ Baseball Game Thursday

On Thursday, April 6, employees of NASA, its contractors and the public will be "going to the Stars" -- without leaving Earth.

Marshall Space Flight Center’s NASA Exchange, the Center’s morale and welfare organization, is sponsoring a buyout baseball game when the Huntsville Stars play the Chattanooga Lookouts at Joe Davis Stadium in Huntsville, Ala.

Art Stephenson, director of the Marshall Center, will throw out the first ball at

7:05 p.m. The first 1,500 attendees will receive free NASA posters.

Free tickets, available to non-profit groups and to the public while supplies last, are available at Parkway City Mall and Madison Square Mall in Huntsville and Colonial Mall in Decatur.

Media seeking more information should contact Jerry Berg of the Marshall Media Relations Department at (256) 544-0034.
