Nuove eccitanti scoperte ed informazioni da parte della Nasa, sono attese per la giornata di domani 13 aprile. Il tutto avverrà con la consueta conferenza stampa, che potrebbe essere del tutto simile a quella che ci ha emozionato l’ultima volta, ovvero nel mese di febbraio.
Al centro della conferenza stampa, dovrebbero esserci quei mondi del nostro sistema solare, ricchi di acqua. O meglio dire, ‘mondi oceanici‘.
La diretta verrà trasmessa sul sito della Nasa a partire dalle 20 di domani (ora italiana).
Il 13 aprile nuova conferenza della Nasa: scoperti mondi oceanici…
Il comunicato della NASA
NASA will discuss new results about ocean worlds in our solar system from the agency’s Cassini spacecraft and the Hubble Space Telescope during a news briefing 2 p.m. EDT on Thursday, April 13. The event, to be held at the James Webb Auditorium at NASA Headquarters in Washington, will include remote participation from experts across the country.
The briefing will be broadcast live on NASA Television and the agency’s website.
These new discoveries will help inform future ocean world exploration — including NASA’s upcoming Europa Clipper mission planned for launch in the 2020s — and the broader search for life beyond Earth.
The news briefing participants will be:
Thomas Zurbuchen, associate administrator, Science Mission Directorate at NASA Headquarters in Washington
Jim Green, director, Planetary Science Division at NASA Headquarters
Mary Voytek, astrobiology senior scientist at NASA Headquarters
Linda Spilker, Cassini project scientist at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California
Hunter Waite, Cassini Ion and Neutral Mass Spectrometer team lead at the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) in San Antonio
Chris Glein, Cassini INMS team associate at SwRI
William Sparks, astronomer with the Space Telescope Science Institute in Baltimore
A question-and-answer session will take place during the event with reporters on site and by phone. Members of the public also can ask questions during the briefing using #AskNASA.
To participate by phone, reporters must contact Dwayne Brown at 202-358-1726 or dwayne.c.brown@nasa.gov and provide their media affiliation no later than noon April 13.
