NASA Exploration Science Forum Abstract Deadline Extended
Due to several requests from the community, the Exploration Science Forum abstract deadline is extended to April 19, 11:59p PDT.
As a point of clarification, there are two meetings the week of July 18 at Ames – the 3rd International Conference on the Exploration of Phobos and Deimos on July 18-19 (co-sponsored by SSERVI) and the Exploration Science Forum on July 20-22 (sponsored by SSERVI). As always, the Forum has a broad focus on the science and exploration of the Moon, Near Earth Asteroids and the moons of Mars. We look forward to lively discussions of research from the science and exploration communities!
The 3rd Phobos/Deimos conference abstract deadline is also April 19 (see below).
Additionally, the LunaGradCon abstract program is live and available for graduate students at http://impact.colorado.edu/lungradcon/2016/
