Family Day
Space Day 2007
Saturday, May 05
10:00 AM to 5:00 PM
Throughout the National Mall building
Admission: Free
Celebrate Space Day 2007 at the National Air and Space Museum on
the National Mall!
Space Day 2007 will be another action-packed day of astronaut appearances,
hands-on activities, book signings, tours, and special stories for children,
all surrounded by the world's most famous space artifacts.
Especially exciting will be a sneak peek at the much-anticipated successor
to the space shuttle, the Orion Crew Exploration Vehicle. This Lockheed
Martin-designed spacecraft of the future will be on view in the shadow of
one of the most historic spacecraft of the past - the Apollo 11 command
module, Columbia.
Have a blast learning how you can build your own model rocket with the
Northern Virginia Association of Rocketry. The group will bring their own
home-built rockets for you to see and lots of information on building a
flyable rocket.
Local robotics teams will show off their latest creations with a robot
petting zoo. The teams will demonstrate their expertise in building and
running robots for competition.
Participating organizations include Lockheed Martin, NASA, and AMSAT-Radio
Amateur Satellite Corporation.
Space Day 2007 at the National Air and Space Museum is made
possible by the generous support of Lockheed Martin.
I am following-up on an earlier request regarding an invitation for AMSAT
to give a presentation at a Montgomery Amateur Radio Club meeting. I have
had a lot of positive feedback from members waiting to hear more about
when this might occur.
Thank you for your attention and consideration.
