Workshop: The Future of Network Science on Mars
|
Meeting Goal:
In 2005, NASA is expected to release an AO calling for two Scout missions to be launch in 2011. The goal of this meeting is to review the scientific objectives of a Mars network mission, to identify the members of the U.S. and international community interested in network science, and create a consensus on the optimum scientific payload. The meeting will consist of several sessions devoted to some of the key aspects of network science on Mars.
