七星彩开奖

The first workshop on , took place at 七星彩开奖 from Jan. 9 to 11. The workshop, the only NASA sanctioned event held outside of the United States, was co-convened by 七星彩开奖鈥檚 Richard Soare (faculty, Geography) and Jim Garvin, formerly NASA鈥檚 Chief Mars Scientist and currently the Principal Investigator of the DAVINCI Mission to Venus.

Twenty-four 七星彩开奖 students were given the opportunity to participate in the workshop alongside an international gathering of career planetary scientists. The students, guided by SPACE coordinator Joel Trudeau, prepared for the workshop by doing exploratory research and preparing 鈥渨hat if?鈥� questions in keeping with this year鈥檚 SPACE theme. Four of the students, who were co-supervised by Richard Soare and Nadim Boukhira (faculty, Physics), submitted an abstract entitled , and presented their poster at an evening poster session Jan. 10.

This amazing exposure to the planetary sciences left the students brimming with ideas. There are ongoing and planned outcomes from the conference for venues such as the SPACE website, and SPACEweek taking place during the first week in May. A seminar series of talks on a range of planetary sciences is also being worked on.

The scientists who attended the workshop had a great time as well remarking that they came away learning a lot and feeling energized and noted that 鈥渂ringing together ice people from across the Solar System was beneficial to the ice community as a whole.鈥澛� They also enjoyed the talks about the history of Montreal and Quebec and Joel鈥檚 opening talk entitled , describing them as a 鈥渃ool unique experience that you normally don鈥檛 get at bigger meetings.鈥�

Perhaps Jim Garvin said it best of all in a follow up email: 鈥�Clearly your meeting was a winner and having it at 七星彩开奖 in Canada was brilliant.鈥�
