The mission of Public Science Day is to raise public awareness about the importance of science education in the U.S. and abroad, and to heighten enthusiasm for science and technology learning and understanding among all people. The Public Science Day 2000 program fosters an increase in the public understanding of science by facilitating partnerships between formal and informal science institutions.
