Science Fun!


As you may or may not know NASA is launching a new Mars rover later this summer. In connection with this they have scheduled a live webcast on June 30 at 1:00 p.m.  
During this webcast the American Museum of Natural History’s Director of Astrovisualization, Carter Emmart, will lead us on an exploration of this exciting landing site as we fly over it together using OpenSpace, NASA-supported software. We will see why Jezero Crater was chosen and the features it has to offer for this latest in NASA’s series of Mars rovers to investigate past conditions which could have supported life.
During the webcast you will be able to interact with NASA scientist using the chat feature so bring your questions.

You can access this webcast via Youtube. Here’s the link
