Giving a talk uptown this weekend…
Solar System Exploration: What’s Next?
A Free Public Lecture
July 16, 2011: 10:00 am – noon
at the New York City Parks’ Inwood Nature Center
Join me as I talk about 2011’s amazing NASA missions. I’ll do an overview of the upcoming launch of the Juno mission to Jupiter, marking NASA’s return to the King of the Planets. I’ll also talk about the arrival of MESSENGER at Mercury, which took place on March 17. I’ll also give a preview of the Dawn Mission to the asteroid Vesta, which is the first spacecraft to orbit an asteroid. (The Vesta Fiesta is coming up in August!) Finally, I’ll talk about NASA’s flagship mission to Mars: Curiosity, the Mars Science Laboratory, which will seek out past life on Mars. Join us, it’ll be an amazing afternoon and a whirlwind of exciting news!
