8:15 am - 8:55 am       Continental Breakfast and registration

                                             The trio will be discussing the science of x-ray diffraction, how it is utilized in their research and the manner in which it is
                                             applied to NASA missions. The presentation will also include information pertaining to student and educator opportunities
                                             at NASA.

                                              To Boldly Go: Exploration of our Solar System.   Matt will address the fact that Sci-fi movies and series make space
                                              exploration look easy, but trekking through our solar system is truly a challenge for us earthbound explorers.  We will                                                          explore how we use robots to boldly go to investigate celestial objects in our solar system. Ideas for incorporating
                                              robotic spacecraft exploration into your lessons will be included.
11:45 am - 12:30 am    Overview of John Carroll's Physics Program and Lab Tour
12:30 pm - 1:25 pm      Lunch
1:30 pm - 2:30 pm        
Dr. Ariel Graykowski of the SETI Institute, Postdoctoral Fellow focused on astronomy of small bodies                                             and the lead of Unistellar's comet program. (Presentation will be remote)
                                                She will be talking about the scientific and education campaigns of Unistellar.  Unistellar is a telescope company that is                                                      partnered with the SETI Institute to establish joint research and education programs aimed at developing a citizen                                                              scientist network of Unistellar astronomers.  She will also discuss their recent paper on the aftermath of NASA’s DART                                                          mission.
