Exciting News! I was selected by NASA...
...to attend the launch of the MAVEN!
Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution (MAVEN) mission:
exploring why Mars lost its atmosphere.
Only 150 civilians received an invite to tour the Kennedy Space Center before the launch, meet with the design team, and watch the launch up close. It's a real privilege, and I look forward to sharing it with everyone.
MAVEN Launch date: mid-November.
About MAVEN: What the Curiosity Rover does for the Martian landscape, the MAVEN will do for the atmosphere--collecting samples and trying to answer a number of questions, chiefly--how did Mars lose its atmosphere and its water? Scientists believe that water shaped the Martian surface. If Mars had not lost its atmosphere at some point, it might be a shiny blue gem just like its neighbor, the Earth. Click for article.
So now I have two launches in my future: The MAVEN and The Conspiracy Game! I'm looking forward to meeting the other attendees and learning more about this mission.
