General Information
*** IMPORTANT CHANGES***
In 2013, the Lunar Science Forum will be a VIRTUAL conference with NO “in-person” component this year!
NASA’s Solar System Exploration Research Virtual Institute (SSERVI), formerly the NASA Lunar Science Institute, will broadcast the annual NASA Lunar Science Forum (LSF) as a virtual conference during the dates of July 16-18, 2013. The conference will be broadcast between the hours of 8:30 a.m. – 3:00 p.m. PDT, Tuesday-Thursday, followed by optional poster sessions each day.
The scientific program<http://lunarscience.nasa.gov/lsf2013/agenda> will feature sessions on in-depth scientific results from the recent and pending missions, including: the Gravity Recovery And Interior Laboratory (GRAIL), Acceleration, Reconnection, Turbulence and Electrodynamics of the Moon’s Interaction with the Sun (ARTEMIS), Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) and a status update for the Lunar Atmosphere and Dust Environment Explorer (LADEE) mission.
Additional program highlights include:
• Annual Shoemaker Award<http://lunarscience.nasa.gov/shoemaker-award/> Lecture (winner to be announced at the meeting)
• The NASA Townhall
• Virtual poster sessions<http://lunarscience.nasa.gov/lsf2013/#Virtual%20Posters>
• Student and Young Professional Events<http://lunarscience.nasa.gov/lsf2013/#Students>
Although this year’s Lunar Science Forum is virtual, we highly encourage local communities to establish virtual hubs<http://lunarscience.nasa.gov/lsf2013/#Virtual%20Hubs>, as described below. We look forward to another exciting meeting focusing on science Of, On and From the Moon!
