I was invited to this by Shalene Baxter of the museum since Jay Levine couldn't make it this year. Thanks for the mention, Kay! POST SHOW NOTES Wow! What an incredible day! I ran out of every item I had. People were most interested in the 3D images from MER, MRO and Phoenix, the Hubble mission (JPL Camera!) and New Horizons. I also had a dedicated Cassini laptop. I wish there were a bookmark or postcard to give out with the Planetary Photojournal website - folks kept asking about where to get the pictures and I got cramps from writing it down!

Francis Parker School

This was integrated with a middle school science project on the sun and solar energy. We spoke quite a bit about STEREO and SOHO. The students also made solar ovens in which we cooked lunch! Some 3D pics to follow.

I made it! I was selected as a Solar System Ambassador to represent NASA/JPL in public outreach.

Here is my public profile on the program page.
