Mysterious Mars with Sky & Telescope editor Kelly Beatty
Thursday, July 12 at 7:00 p.m.

Why are we so fascinated with Mars, our neighbor in space? Why is it so like our own Earth in some ways — and so utterly different in others? This presentation lets you explore the "Red Planet" from afar and up close. Part of our interplanetary tour will put you right on the dusty Martian surface, thanks to 3-D imagery (glasses provided).
