Curiosity Two-Year Anniversary
Ashwin Vasavada,
MSL Deputy Project Scientist,
Jet Propulsion Laboratory,
Curiosity, the rover that successfully landed on Mars in early August, 2012, has been busy refining much of what we know about the red planet. Gale Crater has presented the rover with rich new environments to study, such as ancient streambeds and shifting sand dunes. With a suite of 10 science instruments, the science team has been working to reveal the answers to existing questions, and of course, generating new ones.
This talk will reveal some of the latest results from the last two years of work on the surface of the Red Planet.
This event is free and open to the public. Seating is on a first come, first served basis.
