Beagle2 - the next generation: In conversation with Colin Pillinger

Monday 8 March 2004 at 7pm at The Royal Society, London or via the RS webcast.

Beagle 2 was the plucky little spaceship that people in Britain and across the world took to their hearts.

The dream of a successful Mars landing on Christmas Day 2003 may be over but project leader, Colin Pillinger remains undaunted.

Join him at the Royal Society as he discusses the scientific and emotional legacy of Beagle 2 and Mars Express and his plans for a new voyage to the Red Planet. Admission is FREE and on a first come, first served basis - no ticket or advance booking required.

You can also watch this special event live on the internet from www.royalsoc.ac.uk/live.

I'll be popping down from Leicester for sure. Anyone else planning on going - a Beagle 2 wake at the pub afterwards before I catch a 10:30ish train home?
