Our faculty advisor was the subject of an article in the UT Dallas daily newsletter. Dr. Hoffman's mass spectrometer flew to Mars on the Phoenix mission. The science done by that tool has helped advance our understanding of the Martian atmosphere tremendously. Way to go Dr. Hoffman!
Read the story here.
The questions that I had for our JSC point of contact were answered yesterday. This allows me to move ahead with the proposal and the recruiting poster. I should complete the latter today and have it printed and ready to post by tomorrow. We need at least two more people, though three would be better.
Also, our planned experiment is not going to be classified as a reflight. This is really good for the proposal, because it means that there are two fewer sections that we have to complete.
Today's (tentative) todo:
- Complete the recruiting poster. If I can get copies printed, so much the better.
- Complete a proposal section.
- I'd like to source some research materials, but I don't have physical access to the library today. I'll see what I can find online.
Cheers,
