Objectives

Raise awareness and drive traffic to NASA’s first-ever Spanish-language broadcast of the Mars rover landing of Perseverance through educational content for parents, educators, and children—with the presence of our Muppet characters. 

Strategy and Execution

Sesame Workshop produces one video with our Muppet characters, Abby Cadabby and Lola, along with NASA's aerospace engineer and Tactical Mission Lead for the Mars Perseverance rover, Diana Trujillo. 

The video is eight minutes long and was featured as part of NASA’s first-ever Spanish-language broadcast covering the Perseverance rover’s landing on Mars.

As a part of our strategy and storytelling we created social media content surrounding the event.
