Abstract :
The Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), California Institute of Technology, is challenged with not only providing an environment where engineers and scientists can exchange information quickly and accurately, but also providing the public with the fruits of its exploration in a way that is both interesting and understandable to all age groups and professional arenas. Web technology has given us the means to meet this challenge. A myriad of tools and technologies are used daily to solve communication problems from simple memo distribution to highly complex Web sites instantly delivering custom data around the world
