Dear discuss-lfm members, >>>>> REMINDER... REBROADCASTS OF PROGRAM IV AND V ON NASA-TV Just a reminder that this month of December brings a few opportunities to record two of the Live From Mars programs. NASA-TV's satellite coordinates and air times are as follows: GE-2, Transponder 9C at 85 degrees West longitude, vertical polarization, with a frequency of 3880 MHz, and audio of 6.8 MHz. 2-3 PM 5-6 PM 8-9 PM 11 PM-12 am 2-3 am All times Eastern NASA TV may pre-empt scheduled programming for live Agency events. --------------------------------------------------------------------- DEC 8 Mon. Live From Mars Program IV "Destination Mars" (rebroadcast of live performance) Level: Grades 4-12 TRT: 60:00 Live From Mars Program IV presents highlights from both Pathfinder and Global Surveyor missions. This video also reveals Mars as perhaps the most exciting planet to visit in our solar system. ________________________________________________________________________ DEC 9 Tues. and DEC 24 Wed. Live From Mars Program V: "Today on Mars..." (rebroadcast of live performance) Level: Grades 4-12 TRT: 60:00 Live From Mars Program V presents live weather data and imagery from Mars, showing what has been learned from the Pathfinder lander and rover. This continuing data provides students with material to analyze in math and computer classes. The video shares what Sojourner has revealed about the actual composition of Martian rocks, and what this implies for the question of liquid water and the possibility of life. The video also gives a preview of the next decade of exploration. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks to all who responded to Rhonda's call for input on web chats. There will be a web chat scheduled for December, check the web site at: http://quest.arc.nasa.gov/mars/events/interact.html for more details to be posted soon. Jan Wee, moderator of discuss-lfm
