Open House
The lab has an open house once a year on a Saturday and Sunday in May or June, when the public is invited to tour the facilities and see live demonstrations of JPL science and technology. More limited private tours are also available throughout the year if scheduled well in advance. Thousands of schoolchildren from Southern California and elsewhere visit the lab every year.

In here and there a bird, or butterfly,

When heaven presents in sheets the solid hue?”

That lay in the house that Jack built.”
