[Texascavers] Bexar Grotto Meeting, Feb. 13 @ 7pm

2017-02-09 Thread Bennett Lee via Texascavers
Ever wondered about extraterrestrial caving?  Then come join us at the next 
Bexar Grotto meeting this Monday, Feb. 13, where Dr. Rene DeHon will talk about 
finding and adapting natural shelters on the Moon and Mars as a first step to 
protecting astronauts from the higher radiation environment on these celestial 
bodies.  Learn about the types of natural shelters, their origin, how to look 
for them, and how to adapt them for use.  (That's right!  Learn how we're going 
to turn astronauts into cavers!)

Dr. DeHon was funded for NASA research for over 20 years, has produced geologic 
maps on the Moon, Mars, Mercury, and Ganymede, and has publications on the 
thickness of basalt in the lunar maria, and on the streams, lakes, and 
watersheds on Mars.

Meeting starts promptly at 7pm at the Chester's Hamburgers at Loop 410 and New 
Braunfels Ave.
