10 years of Mars Express Options

[elakdawalla]

ESA are hosting a media event to celebrate a decade(!) since the launch of Mars Express. I had hoped to be able to attend the event but it falls during the last week of my daughter's school year and I couldn't miss her end-of-year programs. So I am wondering if there is somebody on this forum who would be interested in attending as The Planetary Society's delegate, and would be able to file a report from the meeting for the blog. You'd have to show me a writing sample, if I'm not familiar with you as a blogger or writer already. I am happy to copy-edit for someone whose native language is not English, provided you can send me comprehensible English text that tells a good story. I can probably help with some travel costs if needed.

Here is information about the event:

If interested, please send email to blog@planetary.org.

Great offer, and I am not too far away, sadly I am not available at that date.
I hope someone else can go though. =)
