Welcome to day 1 of the American Astronomical Society Meeting in St Louis, MO. It’s 7am, and the day is about to begin, but before I go off and hang posters I want to give you a heads up on today’s events.
Over on Astronomy Cast Live a whole cast of characters are covering this meeting in all manner of ways. Here are a couple highlights:
- 11:30 Central Time is the IYA Plenary sessions announcing our US programs
- 12:45 Central Time NASA town hall meeting (Don’t know if it’s Griffin or not)
- 2:00 Central Time New Media Special Session, which we will UStream
- Press Conferences: 9:30, 11:30 (We will try and UStream these, but I’m not sure we’ll have enough internet)
In addition, we’d like feed back on how we’re doing. If you have a chance, can you please go to this form and give us feedback?
The New Media Special Session was a lot of fun. And I shared some of it in real life with my kids. I filled out the survey.
