Research, public programs and exhibitions are based on these collections, which additionally include more than 32 million digital records of online material. Care of the collections involves the work of registrars, conservators, museum specialists, designers, curators and editors. Approximately 145 million objects and specimens are part of the National Museum of Natural History collections and are primarily used for research by both Smithsonian scientists and researchers from around the world. In some cases, the museum has the definitive, irreplaceable collection of a certain species which is essential for comparative studies. The Center for Astrophysics | Harvard & Smithsonian, played a central role in capturing the first-ever image of a black hole in April. The center led an international collaboration of hundreds of scientists linking eight telescopes across four continents to capture the image that will help scientists answer fundamental questions about how the universe works. A Guam kingfisher was born at the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute (SCBI) in April 2019. Guam kingfishers are extinct in the wild, with only about 140 living in human care, making them one of the most endangered bird species on the planet. The species is notoriously difficult to breed, and was taken from the wild into human care in the 1980s. SCBI has hatched 20 chicks since 1985 as part of the Guam Kingfisher Species Survival Plan. Researchers from the National Museum of Natural History tripled the number of known species of electric eels. A study of the Amazon basin revealed that electric eels belong to three different species that evolved from a shared ancestor. Scientists had previously believed that the eels all belonged to a single species. The National Museum of American History and the Smithsonian's Digitization Program Office digitized 18,000 political and military posters, making them accessible for the first time to the public online. 467064509 2497585 46253688 Education, Public Programs and Exhibitions (SEE SCHEDULE O) EDUCATION, PUBLIC PROGRAMS AND EXHIBITIONS: The National Museum of American History and the Smithsonian Latino Center announced the first physical gallery space on the National Mall dedicated to celebrating the U.S. Latino experience. The Molina Family Latino Gallery will open in 2021 in the National Museum of American History. It will feature 4,500 square feet of bilingual stories for all audiences through rotating exhibitions. The National Portrait Gallery opened "Votes for Women: A Portrait of Persistence" in March 2019. The exhibition examines the history of women's suffrage in the U.S. Through more than 120 portraits and objects, the exhibition outlines the more than 80-year movement for women to obtain the right to vote. The exhibition was the first to be funded by the Smithsonian American Women's History Initiative, which strives to be the nation's most comprehensive undertaking to document, research, collect, display and share the stories of women in America. The National Museum of Natural History opened a new hall of fossils, after five years of planning and construction. "The David H. Koch Hall of Fossils-Deep Time," opened in June 2019, tells the story of 3.7 billion years of life on Earth, highlighting the connections among ecosystems, climate, geological forces and evolution, through more than 700 fossil specimens. The exhibition helps visitors understand that the choices they make today will have an impact on the future. The National Air and Space Museum led the national celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing in 1969. To commemorate the anniversary, the museum and NASA partnered to present the Apollo 50 Festival for three days on the National Mall. The centerpiece of the festival was a full-motion projection mapping on the Washington Monument. Over half a million people visited the National Mall to see the 17-minute show that used archival footage to recreate the launch of Apollo 11 and tell the story of the first moon landing. The museum also put Neil Armstrong's Apollo 11 space suit on display, after having been off display for 13 years of conservation. 71052788 0 55792894 Membership (SEE SCHEDULE O) MEMBERSHIP: The National Associate Program is the Institution's largest and most basic membership program.

Schedule D, Part II, Line 6 CONSERVATION MONITORING POLICIES The Smithsonian Environmental Research Center (SERC) is located on 2,650 acres of land on the Chesapeake Bay in southern Maryland spanning forests, wetlands, marshes, and 12 miles of protected shoreline. The site serves as a natural laboratory for long-term and cutting-edge ecological research. The Smithsonian has a conservation easement associated with property that is immediately adjacent to SERC land owned by the Institution. Facilities and security staff visit the area regularly, and are thus able to report any unusual activity on the land subject to the easement. The organization does not separately track the hours and expenses associated with monitoring the property related to the easement. Schedule D, Part II, Line 9 Conservation easements financial reporting The Smithsonian Institution's conservation easement does not appear in the Institution's audited financial statements. Schedule D, Part III, Line 1a Collections of art - financial statement footnote In conformity with the practice generally followed by museums, no value is assigned to the collections in the statement of financial position. Purchases of collection items are recognized as reductions in unrestricted net assets in the period of acquisition. Proceeds from deaccessions or insurance recoveries for lost or destroyed collection items are recognized as increases in the appropriate net asset class and are designated for future collection acquisitions. Schedule D, Part III, Line 4 Collections of art - description of collections The acquisition, preservation, management, and study of collections are fundamental to the Smithsonian's mission to increase and diffuse knowledge and have been the foundation upon which it rests. Smithsonian collections are a national and global resource accessed each year by millions of visitors and researchers who use traditional methods and cutting-edge technologies to explore subjects from aeronautics to zoology. Through its collections, the Smithsonian presents the astonishing record of American and international artistic, historical, cultural, and scientific achievement, with a scope and depth no other institution in the world can match. Smithsonian collections contribute to population recovery of endangered species, advances in reproductive biology, genome resource banking, medical research, forensic analysis, bio-security, and conservation policy worldwide. Assembled over more than 165 years, the collections are central to the core activities and to the vitality and significance of the Smithsonian. Schedule D, Part V, Line 4 Intended uses of endowment funds THE ENDOWMENT INCLUDES APPROXIMATELY 600 INDIVIDUAL ENDOWMENT FUNDS. THE ENDOWMENT PROVIDES STABLE FINANCIAL SUPPORT FOR SCHOLARSHIP, RESEARCH ACTIVITIES, OTHER PROGRAMS, ACQUISITIONS OF COLLECTIONS AND OTHER INSTITUTIONAL ACTIVITIES. IT PLAYS A CRITICAL ROLE IN ENABLING THE INSTITUTION TO ACHIEVE ITS MISSION - "THE INCREASE AND DIFFUSION OF KNOWLEDGE." THE ENDOWMENT INCLUDES BOTH DONOR-RESTRICTED ENDOWMENT FUNDS AND FUNDS DESIGNATED BY THE BOARD OF REGENTS TO FUNCTION AS ENDOWMENTS. CLASSIFICATION AND REPORTING OF NET ASSETS ASSOCIATED WITH THE ENDOWMENT REFLECT DONOR-IMPOSED RESTRICTIONS.

The Smithsonian Institution Fellowship Program is a competitive fellowship program for graduate and postdoctoral fellows, who apply to conduct research at the Institution with research staff serving as advisors. The review process is made up of disciplinary committees comprised of the Institution's staff who evaluate the candidates and then select the fellows. There are other competitive and non-competitive fellowships for visiting scholar and student appointees selected through the Smithsonian units that go through a variety of other selection processes before an award is made. An official letter/agreement is provided to each award recipient identifying the award title, dates of tenure, stipend allowances, and required responsibilities for holding this position. All recipients either will identify a financial institution for receipt of their monetary award or they will receive US Treasury checks. Depending on the tenure of the appointment, payments can range from one lump sum, biweekly payments or monthly payments. Most fellowship appointments are awarded for one to two years. On occasion, the Smithsonian Institution has visiting scholars or fellows who are conducting research in another country. Payments are usually submitted as stated above, however, on occasion, there may be one or two who request that their payments be sent to the country of their research. At the end of tenure, a final report of their research accomplishments is provided for our records. Smithsonian research staff who serve as advisors to these fellows, students and scholars are usually in the field during their tenure. The eight Smithsonian research centers located in the United States and one located in Panama monitor the progress of their fellows especially those fellows in other countries, and the administrative management of funds is managed through the Institution's central administration for accountability. Schedule F, Part I, Line 3 foreign travel Program services for travel related to research, conferences and training is for travel by SI employees, research associates, or invitational travelers (i.e., individuals who are not SI employees).

Individuals and firms are hired on a contractual basis to process acquisitions. Although the Smithsonian acquires collection with the good faith intention of retaining them for an indefinite period of time, prudent collections management includes judicious consideration of appropriate deaccessioning and disposal to refine and improve the quality and relevance of the collections with respect to the Smithsonian's mission and purpose. When objects are deaccessioned for disposal by sale, the Smithsonian contracts with commercial galleries or auction houses to sell the objects in order to assure the best return from the sale.

THE "MARS EXPERIENCE" WAS PRODUCED AND DONATED TO THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION BY LOCKHEED MARTIN. Form 990, Part VI, Line 1a Delegate broad authority to a committee The Bylaws of the organization delegate authority to the Executive Committee to act on behalf of the Board of Regents when the Board of Regents is not in session. The Board of Regents elects from its members an Executive Committee consisting of three members. The Executive Committee has and may exercise all powers of the Board of Regents when the Board of Regents is not in session, except those expressly reserved to itself by the Board of Regents, provided that all such proceedings are reported to the Governance and Nominating Committee and the Board of Regents on a regular basis. The Chair of the Board serves as Chair of the Executive Committee. The Vice Chair of the Board serves as a member of the Executive Committee. Form 990, Part VI, Line 7a Members or stockholders electing members of governing body Pursuant to federal statute, the Board of Regents consists of the Vice President of the United States, the Chief Justice of the United States, three members of the U.S. Senate, three members of the U.S. House of Representatives, and nine additional citizen Regents. The three Senators are appointed by the President Pro Tempore of the U.S. Senate, and the three members of the House of Representatives are appointed by the Speaker of the House of Representatives. Their appointment terms coincide with the terms for which they are elected, and they may be reappointed if re-elected. The citizen Regents are nominated by the Board of Regents, and appointed by a Joint Resolution of Congress which is signed by the President of the United States. Form 990, Part VI, Line 11b Review of form 990 by governing body The Form 990 return is reviewed by the Director of Finance and Accounting, the Office of General Counsel, Chief Operating Officer and the Secretary of the Smithsonian. The return is also reviewed by an independent accounting firm. After this review process, the 990 is made available to the full Board for its review and comment. The Audit & Review Committee conducts a final review of the return at a regularly scheduled Committee meeting prior to its filing. Form 990, Part VI, Line 12c Conflict of interest policy All officers, key employees, and certain other employees are required to complete and file annually a Confidential Financial Disclosure Report. These Reports - which require disclosure of certain assets, earned income, liabilities, outside positions, outside contracts and agreements, gifts, hospitality, reimbursements, and other interests related to the employee's Smithsonian position - are reviewed by the Institution's Office of General Counsel for compliance with applicable conflict of interest policies and laws. In addition to this required reporting, all key employees are required to comply with the Institution's Standards of Conduct, which, among other things, requires that employees not engage in private or personal activities that might conflict or appear to conflict with Smithsonian interests, requires that employees obtain Office of General Counsel approval before engaging in an outside activity for compensation, and requires employees to consult with the Office of General Counsel whenever a doubt exists as to whether an activity or planned activity violates the Standards. All members of the Smithsonian's governing body are required to complete and file annually the Board of Regents Annual Disclosure Statement. These statements - which require reporting by members (including any reportable interests held by immediate family of members) on outside positions and substantial shareholding in for-profit business entities, outside positions in non-profit entities, and interests and affiliations of the member that have or sought to have a relationship to the Smithsonian - are reviewed by the Institution's General Counsel for compliance with applicable conflict of interest policies and laws. In addition to this required reporting, all members of the Smithsonian's governing body are required to comply with the Board of Regents Ethics Guidelines, which, among other things, define conflicts of interest and establish procedures for disclosing and reporting of conflicts and recusal from decision-making. Form 990, Part VI, Line 15a Process to establish compensation of top management official The Smithsonian ensures that compensation paid to officers and other key employees is reasonable and comparable to similar organizations. Employees of the Smithsonian may be paid with federally appropriated funds or with nonfederal ("Trust") funds. Most Trust funded (nonfederal) officer and key employee positions are subject to market-based compensation, and the Board of Regent's Committee on Compensation and Human Resources engages an independent consultant to develop and assemble comparability data for its consideration and to inform its decisions. The Committee's annual deliberations and decisions are documented as part of the final recommendation materials submitted to the Board of Regents. Salaries for Federal employees are determined by statutorily established pay ranges for civil service employees. As a matter of policy, the Smithsonian has established similar ranges for certain Trust funded officer and key employee positions and maintains those ranges in proportion to the appropriate Federal pay ranges. Form 990, Part VI, Line 15b Process to establish compensation of other employees See explanation for Part VI, Line 15a Form 990, Part VI, Line 19 Required documents available to the public The Smithsonian makes its governing documents, statement of values and code of ethics, and audited financial statements available on its public website (www.si.edu). Documents may also be viewed at the Office of Finance and Accounting or mailed.

The review process is made up of disciplinary committees comprised of the Institution's staff who evaluate the candidates and then select the fellows. There are other competitive and non-competitive fellowships for visiting scholar and student appointees selected through the Smithsonian units that go through a variety of other selection processes before an award is made. An official letter/agreement is provided to each award recipient identifying the award title, dates of tenure, stipend allowances, and required responsibilities for holding this position. All recipients either will identify a financial institution for receipt of their monetary award or they will receive US Treasury checks. Depending on the tenure of the appointment, payments can range from one lump sum, biweekly payments or monthly payments. Most fellowship appointments are awarded for one to two years. On occasion, the Smithsonian Institution has visiting scholars or fellows who are conducting research in another country. Payments are usually submitted as stated above, however, on occasion, there may be one or two who request that their payments be sent to the country of their research. At the end of tenure, a final report of their research accomplishments is provided for our records. Smithsonian research staff who serve as advisors to these fellows, students and scholars are usually in the field during their tenure. The eight Smithsonian research centers located in the United States and one located in Panama monitor the progress of their fellows especially those fellows in other countries, and the administrative management of funds is managed through the Institution's central administration for accountability.
