‘Evening of Light’ to feature Mars exploration, genius of lasers

What is it like to explore Mars? What do the latest discoveries from the Red Planet tell us about our own past on Earth -- or our future?

Find out in person next month at Western Washington University, via a talk by professor Melissa Rice, one of 400 scientists worldwide to help pilot NASA's Mars Curiosity Rover. Dr. Rice's talk and an entertaining and educational laser show will be presented Tuesday 20 October at 6:30 p.m. in the Performing Arts Center on the Western campus.
