Spinnakers with Dr. Ray Arvidson


Dr. and Mrs. Arvidson
 Our Spinnaker group, for Seniors, was fortunate to have Dr. Arvidson present a program on Mars Rovers.  It was educational and entertaining to hear about the history of the program, learning about the difficulties navigating the Rovers from so far away.  It was interesting to see how similar Mars looks to areas on Earth.  As a planetary geologist, Dr. Arvidson explained that we can learn more about the history and the formation of Earth by studying Mars.  Since Earth is still so "active", it is harder to study our geological origins.





L. Smith, Chair of Adult Education





 This was followed by dessert and fellowship.  Consider joining one of our Adult Fellowship Groups which can be fun and educational.  Click here for more information.
