5th Annual Vikings Hockey Sunset Cruise
The Friday July 12 meeting of the Gloucester Area Astronomy Club will
feature old friend and NASA Solar System Ambassador Ted Blank, with a
presentation on the exploits of the Mars Curiosity rover. Ted will give us
a colorful and in-depth look at the news and photos "just in from Mars"!
The Curiosity rover and the Mars Science Laboratory it carries are the most
expensive, most complex instruments ever sent to the surface of another
planet. In addition to great pictures, Curiosity is now returning
cutting-edge science data for the first time, including, for just one
example, checking out the martian radiation environment in advance of human
visitors!
Curiosity’s main mission, the goal of many individual onboard science
experiments, is to determine whether Mars could have once harbored life,
and even whether it might do so today.
This is exciting stuff. Ted is one of our most popular speakers, so come
early and bring your questions.
The meeting will begin at 8:00 pm, Friday July 12, at the Lanesville
Community Center.
GAAC meets on the second Friday of every month at the Lanesville Community
Center. More information is available on their website ( http://gaac.us )
and Facebook page ( http:www.facebook.com/gaacpage ). No telescope is
necessary, just an interest in what’s going on out there. Meetings are free
and open to everyone, and presentations are suitable for the general public.
Good Morning Gloucester
