Like everyone else I've been very interested in the news on Mars this weekend. We don't have a computer at home, so I couldn't wait to come up to school today and check my email from discuss-lfm. I hope my students were able to view the news on CNN and that they said to their parents ( or whoever) "we studied that in school!" and that they remember some of the things we talked about and recognized the scientists from our LFM programs that appeared in the news Friday evening on CNN. Science seemed so real to me when Matt Golombek, Donna Shirley, Rob Manning and others who had shared their time with LFM were on the real news! I hope my students felt the same! Does everyone who went to the conference last summer remember Kurt Gramoll, who shared the CD Rom with us? He was at GA Tech here in Atlanta? He came and spoke to my students this year. Well, he was on CNN Friday interviewed by John Holliman. And Geoff, I beleive I saw you on the press conference asking what made some rocks on Mars more desirable to study than others. By the way, what happened to our Good Morning America greeting segment? I spent a sleepy two hours watching for us on GMA Friday morning with no luck. :) I wish everyone an enjoyable summer!
