There’s an old saying that the ocean rocks the moon to sleep every night, and the sun awakens and kisses the beach. The beach brings us profound joy, peace, and excitement, all at once, while allowing us to marvel at something so majestic—for free.
It’s our duty to preserve such beauty, because paradoxical to its magnificence, the beach cannot fend for itself—it cannot clean itself.
On a rainy day, April 19, Aerospace teamed up with the Space and Missile Systems Center (SMC) for a beach cleanup at Manhattan Beach Pier in Manhattan Beach, CA. For Aerospace, this was our first organized beach cleanup, and our group of volunteers did a splendid job picking up the beach debris. We are eager to participate in more beach cleanups with SMC and hope to see even more of our Aerospace people at the beach next time, sporting the cool green shirt.
