Security Note
Regulations require that visitors arrange in advance for a building pass. Persons attending a NASA GISS seminar or colloquium should contact the event host at least two days in advance of the event for assistance. Please include your affiliation in your e-mail.
Effective July 21, 2014, the implementation of Phase II of the Real-ID Act (2005) restricts the use of state ID from non-compliant states (including New York) as an acceptable form of identification for federal facilities such as NASA GISS. If you are scheduled to visit GISS and only have a standard driver's license from a non-compliant state, please be sure to bring a second form of ID (passport, military ID, etc.).
Special arrangements must be made for persons who are not U.S. citizens or U.S. permanent residents. Such persons planning to attend a NASA GISS event should contact the event host at least 20 days in advance of visiting GISS.
All visitors can expect to have their bags searched upon entry to GISS. This may include having to answer questions about personal items, including any medication the visitor may be carrying.
