ASU's Center for Meteorite Studies marks 50 years


The Center for Meteorite Studies at Arizona State University celebrates its 50 years of cutting edge meteoritical research, as well as building world class meteorite collection on Friday, October 21.

The Center is offering a free evening lecture Friday night by Tim McCoy from the Smithsonian, on the NASA Dawn mission to asteroid 4 Vesta. When I checked a few minutes ago, a few tickets were still available. Go to http://cmsanniversary.eventbrite.com/.
