SMALL BODIES ASSESSMENT GROUP 13TH MEETING: EARLY CAREER TRAVEL SUPPORT AND AGENDA

The 13th meeting of the Small Bodies Assessment Group (SBAG) will be held June 29 to midday July 1 in Washington, DC.

1) Early career travel support: We are pleased to be able to offer limited US travel support for a few early career scientists to participate in the SBAG 13 meeting. Interested graduate students,
postdocs, and other early career scientists (within 3 years of PhD/MS/BS) should email a one-page letter and a CV to Nancy Chabot by April 24, 2015.

2) As we get the SBAG 13 agenda together, we’d like to give any team that submitted a small body related Discovery mission proposal the opportunity to briefly share their submitted concept with the community on June 30. Please pass this invitation along to any teams you were
involved with, and contact Nancy Chabot to be added to the agenda.

Also, both the Dawn and New Horizons teams have provided great slide sets:

As public interest continues to grow in these missions, please use these slides to share the excitement with the public at any possible opportunity!
