I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: NASA’s social media game is strong. Now that’s being officially recognized, as the agency has been nominated for five Webby Awards, including three for its social media:

Government and Civil Innovation – NASA.gov (NOAA.gov is also a contender)
Corporate Communications – NASA social media
Science – the Cassini Mission to Saturn
Education and Discovery – The Jet Propulsion Laboratory’s social media
Best Overall Social Presence – the Cassini Mission social media

We need your help! Two NASA websites & three of our social media programs are nominated for @TheWebbyAwards! Vote: https://t.co/Fz6bccaKZo pic.twitter.com/elibvcPkXf
