Survey of interest in Planetary Science Engagement Institute for later this year

The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory’s VORTICES program and the Lunar and Planetary Institute are considering offering a Planetary Science Engagement Institute for planetary scientists and engineers interested in engaging public audiences in planetary science and solar system exploration. This free 1½ day institute would be scheduled for late 2018. Content may include common solar system misconceptions, techniques for addressing controversial topics, simple activities and demonstrations for engaging audiences, and more. This scientist engagement event would be geared towards current researchers, college faculty, and graduate students and postdocs in planetary science.
