I'm thinking that the ESOC MEX team for turning the VMC back on deserve a nomination. Anyone fellow Europeans want to come in on it and co-sign it? |

Well I'd say that's the proposer/seconder 'dream ticket' sorted.
Now if you want numbers, petition style, please count me in. |

Ah I was a bit late to the table on this one but I also count as an EU person if you need any more.

I'm happy to stand aside if we would rather have someone from another EU state - at the moment we have all four from the UK!

The only two things I could think of were the ESOC blogging team from recent flybys, and the VMC guys for turning it back on. In all of ESA, that's the only good outreach I could think of.

It's not for planetary science, but hasn't the PR for Herschel and Planck been, well, almost adequate?
Incidentally, it appears that you could nominate any European working for a planetary science project anywhere on anyone's dime OR anyone of any citizenship in Europe. Isn't the VEX VMC poster here an American in Europe? Eligible. Paolo, if he still has an Italian passport, eligible. |

Dan - I think that should either be French Guiana or Guyane but in any case thanks to the old French Empire there are little bits of "Europe" in the oddest of places, they have an MEP (a European Parliamentarian) even use the good old Euro.

Thanks Joe. Now we need to find a UMSFer from there to really round out the cross section of co-signers. I mean seriously that would certainly draw attention to the nomination.
