Space Party ... Planet!

Share


*GROAN* ... but yeah, so may people have started to PLANET, my new map is growing daily.

Since I put the map online last week and tweeted the Google Link, folks have been sending more and more information -- and the number of Mars Parties have more than doubled!

Mars Curiosity MSL Landing Events
The count is now 56 events across the United States, 3 in Canada, 1 in the United Kingdom and 1 in Australia! I am sure there are more, so please keep those tweets and emails coming... it's not a stretch to think there are closer to 100 once we cover science organizations in every state.

Pink markers show official events by space agencies (NASA and CSA), green markers indicate the PLANETFEST 2012 linked events by the Planetary Society, and yellow markers indicate independent events held by planetariums, museums, universities, public libraries and even a couple of restaurants!

Between August 3rd and August 6th, find the Mars Curiosity Rover Landing Party near you!
