Webcast

This "kids-only" press conference will feature young engineers sharing the latest accomplishments of the Mars Exploration Rovers, Spirit and Opportunity. The 40 minute production will highlight lots of rover images, animations and video clips, some learning about the capabilities of the rovers, and an inside look at how kids can get involved with engineering and space exploration. A live audience and e-mail link will provide many questions for the panelists - you can even email in your own questions and have them answered live during the show.

Panelists:

Julie Townsend Tactical Uplink Lead, Mars Exploration Rover Mission

Kobie Boykins Staff Mechanical Engineer, Mars Exploration Rover Mission

Geoff Lake Database Administrator, Mars Exploration Rover Mission, Engineering Student
