   Ms. Hill,

    Thank you!!. Excellent. Looking forward to a smooth landing and the 
analyses of findings in a future "Noticed" webinar.
  Again, perfect; history, progress, procedural processes and now just 
waiting for the unknown.

  *Relics of a Time Long Past: Deciphering the Origins of Our
  Planetary System Through Analysis of Returned Samples*

Our solar system formed from a spinning cloud of gas and dust some 4.5 
billion years ago. Our understanding of this early solar nebula has 
largely been developed through the decades-long study of meteorites, 
rocks from asteroids that hurtled through space before eventually 
arriving on Earth. Asteroids are remnants of the earliest days of our 
solar system, representing our most primitive solar system building 
blocks. However, we lack an understanding of which asteroids 
meteorites derive from, meaning we lose important context for 
deciphering the origins of our solar system. This September, NASA 
will, for the first time in its history, return a piece of an 
asteroid. Led by the University of Arizona’s Lunar and Planetary 
Laboratory, the OSIRIS-REx mission will return ≥60 g of carbonaceous 
asteroid Bennu. In my public evening lecture, I will provide an 
overview of meteorites and what they tell us about the solar system as 
well as an overview of this transformative mission, the plan for 
sample analysis, and what we hope to learn about our origins by 
measuring the returned samples.

Hi Dolores,

I appreciate your posting events like this and taking the time to do so. I
am sure you get a few more people attending these types of events when you
post. During the Tucson Gem Show, if any events are going on, please post
so those of us that aren't so close by can attend. Many Thanks!

Sincerely

--AL Mitterling
