"Mars 3D" : Movie Premiere at the Franklin Institute, Philadelphia, 12 Nov 2008, 9 PM

This new movie was produced in partnership with the Science Museum of Minnesota.

I will be hosting a free premiere showing at 9 PM as part of the 12 November 2008 monthly meeting of the Rittenhouse Astronomical Society (RAS). I will present a brief intro to the film and do a Q&A at the finale. All are welcome. Meeting and film are free

This should be a more updated companion to "IMAX Roving Mars" film cited elsewhere here in the Spirit thread. And should be a good companion to the new Jim Bell book titled "Mars 3-D: A Rovers-Eye View of the Red Planet"

Jim Bell had some involvement with the production

anyone with further background on the film please post here
