Lunar and Planetary Science Conference Starting Tomorrow

Over the last month and a half, we have been taking an early look at some of the Io research that will be presented at the Lunar and Planetary Science Conference, which starts tomorrow in Houston, Texas.  I will not be there in Houston for the conference, but I will be in spirit.  That's not really the same...

Anyways, if you are going to the conference and you start getting sick and tired of same ol' Mars and Moon talks and posters, and you start asking yourself, "Is there nothing here that's cool and different, and not covered in hematite concretions?", here is your Io itinerary:

Tuesday evening, March 2, 6:30–9:30 pm: Poster Session I

Mission Plans and Concepts
Wednesday Afternoon, March 3, 1:30 pm: Planetary Atmospheres
Thursday evening, March 4, 6:30–9:30 pm: Poster Session II

Planetary Atmospheres
Satellites and their Planets
Igneous and Volcanic Processes
Also if you or someone you know will be blogging or twittering from the conference, send me a note and I will post a group of links to them in a post tomorrow.
