"Basics of Space Flight" Educator Conference -- Dec. 1-2, 2007
The "Basics of Space Flight" Educator Conference will take place Dec.
1-2, 2007, at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif. The
conference will provide participants with a better understanding of the
richness and complexity of robotic flight projects. The conference
approach will be mostly non-technical, although some basic physics will
be discussed. Attendees will also gain a better perspective of how
science goals are defined and how data return is prioritized.
Space is limited, and pre-registration is required. It will not be
possible to register at the door. The conference will run 8:00 a.m. to
5:00 p.m. on Saturday and 8:00 a.m. to noon on Sunday. High school and
college students are welcome to attend and must register. Attendees
under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult during the
conference.
The registration deadline is Nov. 26, 2007. For more information,
