Her talk, “Fishing (for habitable environments) on Mars” will talk about the rover’s latest science results, with lots of beautiful pictures from the Martian surface!
Jen, did this talk at the Del Rey Yacht club to a large group. She was well received and great. Her pictures of the Curiosity Rover on Mars and the pictures that it took of the Mars surface are awesome+. As well as how the complicated landing took place and the years of research. Was there water on Mars? Yes, along time ago. Were there fish?
