n July 20, the nation celebrates the
50th anniversary of the Apollo 11
mission, which landed astronauts Neil
Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin on the moon.
To honor this milestone and inspire
young people to visualize space explo-
ration, NASA collaborated with IT and
engineering firm MORI Associates and
nonprofit SciArt Exchange to create the
Project Mars International Film and Art
Competition. Open to college students
and young professionals around the
globe, the competition gave entrants an
opportunity to imagine NASA's antici-
pated series of missions to Mars.
Of the 570 entries submitted to the art
competition, 34 posters were selected
as winners. Some of the winning posters
are on display at Third Coast Restaurant,
located on the sixth floor of 6550 Bertner
Ave., through July 31.
