<p style="margin:0in;background:white"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;color:black">The website is now live for registration and abstract submission for the inaugural NASA Sounding Rocket Symposium to be held August 17-19, 2022 at the Wallops Flight Facility,
Wallops Island, Virginia. This 2.5-day event will be held in person, with virtual participation accommodated during the oral sessions. This is an opportunity for both new and experienced scientists and engineers interested and involved in sounding rockets
across all disciplines — Astrophysics, Solar, and Geospace — to come together and share ideas and experiences focused on this unique research platform. The symposium will be preceded (August 16) by a meeting of the NASA Sounding Rocket Working Group
at Wallops, to which community members are welcome to attend. </span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
