Curiosity found something. We find out Thursday

Presenters will include:

  • Paul Mahaffy, director of the Solar System Exploration Division at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland
  • Jen Eigenbrode, a research scientist at the Goddard center;
  • Chris Webster, a senior research fellow at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California;
  • Ashwin Vasavada, NASA’s Mars Science Laboratory project scientist at JPL. (Mars Science Laboratory is the full name of the Curiosity rover’s $2.5 billion mission.)

Dr. Paul R Mahaffy, Director , Solar System Exploration Division.

Jennifer Eigenbrode is a biogeochemist and geologist with expertise in organic and isotope biogeochemistry and interests in astrobiology.

Dr. Christopher R. Webster is a JPL Fellow and Senior Research Scientist […] he has pioneered the application of tunable laser spectroscopy to a wide variety of research in molecular structure, photochemistry, electrical discharge physics, and especially Earth atmospheric science emphasizing polar ozone, cloud physics and tropical transport.

Ashwin R. Vasavada is the scientist in charge.

So, a director, a biogeochemist, an instrument/experiment expert, and the scientist in charge. This could be interesting.

Jimmy Hoffa would be okay too.

I don’t even think that’s the real Elvis… that’s got to be an impersonator…

And the REAL Elvis is in a Nursing Home in East Texas, fighting Mummies (with JFK):

Good eye! I grabbed the first Vegas era Elvis image I could find, and it was definitely an impersonator.
