Geeking out over World Space Week

 At Esco, we’re always looking for new and innovative ways to do things and develop new products. And who better to partner with when where pushing the envelope than NASA?

Currently, we have a few top-secret projects in the works with the space administration. We’re documenting the whole process and capturing all the details as we create optics for NASA’s groundbreaking technologies. We can’t wait to share it with you. But for now, you’ll just have to trust us—it’s some pretty cool stuff.

Today, we want to talk about something different—World Space Week (WSW). It’s an annual holiday observed from October 4 through 10 that celebrates science and technology, and their contribution to the betterment of the human condition. WSW is a global event, recognized from North America to Europe and Asia. We’re really pumped to be a part of it.

As we’ve mentioned before, Esco was founded to help those with a passion for astronomy and optics further their curiosities. That mission has led to steady growth as we’ve refined the ways we help our peers and clients. Since our humble beginnings our drive for precision and quality optics has never wavered.

We hope you'll join us each day of WSW as we post facts and interesting insights that highlight the importance of optics and related fields. Share our blog and spread the word. So, buckle up and enjoy the ride as we blast off into World Space Week.
