Hi folks, I've been away at play...7 sunny days in glorius Acapulco, and now at KSC for recent launch of STS-82 (wow!, a major life thrill for me). Life is hard, but I DO appreciate my blessings. Anyway, I'm starting a long road towards email catchup and came across Dave E's note about Discovery programming: > The Discovery Channel has a new web site for teachers, The Discovery > Channel School. ... During the next few months the Discovery Channel > will have an Earth to Mars theme. In case the direct Earth to Mars URL hasn't yet surfaced, see http://www.school.discovery.com/spring97/themes/earthtomars Also be sure to note a Discovery Channel/NASA K-12 Internet Initiative partnership to bring a week's worth of great WebChats with key space folks. Reserve some time during the week of April 7-11, 1997 for hot talk with cool people. Each day's activities start at 2:00 p.m. ET / 11:00 a.m. PT and will last about 2 hours. See http://www.school.discovery.com/spring97/themes/earthtomars/nasa for more details. Yours, Marc PS A shuttle launch simply cannot be adequately described except by being there. At night, the rockets turn night into a brief, blue-tinged dawn. Just amazing. And the sound is felt as well as heard. WOW! I can't believe I get paid for this. Duration: approximately two hours NASA K-12 Also pay special attention (I'm way too behind to digure outr what's been said or not
