Thematic / Collaborative Approaches to Upcoming PSD Events

Jim Green: “Planetary is mostly events driven …let’s take advantage of this • Flyby, orbit, land, rove, return samples • These are national events that provide the opportunity to educate and excite”

Thematic / Collaborative Approaches to Upcoming PSD Events

• For our November tag up: – How do we, as a community, approach these events to educate and excite our audiences about planetary exploration and discoveries? – What are the themes? – How can we leverage SMD assets (scientists, education programs and products, nasawavelength.org, each other, etc.)? – How can we collaborate across our community? • Regular registration deadline … today! Late registration October 23. • Hotel reservations due October 10, 2014 to ensure group rate • Program:
