[meteorite-list] Reminder: Wednesday - Free meteorite-related lecture at UA

2019-10-14 Thread Dolores Hill via Meteorite-list

Dear Meteorite Friends,

Reminder!

I take this opportunity to cordially invite you to an interesting free, 
meteorite-related, public lecture at the University of Arizona's Lunar 
and Planetary Laboratory in Tucson, Arizona located at 1629 E. 
University Blvd., Tucson, Arizona.


I would like to point out that it was Mike Nolan and team who determined 
Bennu's spinning top shape - and got it perfect!! Not many astronomers 
have the luxury of spacecraft flybys to validate their work. Come enjoy 
another great LPL speaker.


October 16th at 7 pm
Hear Dr. Michael Nolan, OSIRIS-REx Science Team Chief, speak about 
"Twenty Years of Bennu: From Arecibo to Orbit".
He will relate the amazing story of asteroid Bennu from initial 
detection to astounding discoveries!

Thank you to all those who regularly attend LPL public events and stop 
by to say hello!


Best regards,
Dolores Hill
