DIRECTIONS

Map link to NASA Ames' main gate
The entrance to NASA Ames and CONTACT 2008 is on Moffett Blvd, a few miles north of highway 237 off highway 101 near Mountain View, California. From 101, take the Moffett Field exit heading east. This will take you straight to the Ames gate in ¼ mile.

Map link to NASA Ames' grounds
At the gate, show your driver’s license** and say that you are going to the "Contact Ames Symposium" in the NACC building (also called building 3).   Enter through the gates and stay as straight as you can go.  Just after "McCord Avenue" there is a parking lot on the left and right.  Park in either lot. The conference building, NACC, is on the left.  If the road ends you have gone 1 block too far.

***IMPORTANT*** Since the conference will be held at NASA Ames Research Center, everyone attending needs to be able to show photo identification at the gate. Photo ID has to be government issued. A driver's license is sufficient for US and Canadian citizens. Otherwise, passport or green card is needed. If one is under 17 years old, there is no badging done.

All Non-US and Non-Canadian citizens who plan on attending the Contact Conference at NASA Ames must contact Helen Stewart (helen.j.stewart@nasa.gov) and/or Martha Del Alto (martha.e.delalto@nasa.gov) at least 6 weeks in advance, prior to February 14, 2008 for explicit instructions for visitor badges to the NASA Ames Research Center.
