Putting the 'P' in 'JPL'--The Past, Present, and Future of Propulsion at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory
Todd Barber, Cassini Propulsion Lead Engineer, Jet Propulsion Laboratory,

From modest beginnings in the era of early liquid rockets through state-of-the-art propulsion systems flown on 21st century spacecraft, propulsion technologies have advanced dramatically through the decades.

JPL propulsion engineer Todd J. Barber will highlight over three quarters of a century of propulsion experience at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, and will also look at the future of propulsion as it applies to solar system exploration.

This event is free and open to the public. Seating is on a first come, first served basis.
