[Baps] SPICE training class in Boston: call for expression of interest

[Felici, Marianna]

Dear Planetary scientists in the Boston Area,


The Center for Space Physics, Boston University, would like to organize a SPICE training class in Boston, in the period between the end of January and March.


If you are not already familiar with it, “SPICE”  is an observation geometry information system offered by NASA's Navigation and Ancillary Information Facility (NAIF). It is used to identify the positions and orientations of various solar system bodies for observation planning and interpretation. You can find more information at the SPICE homepage:

https://naif.jpl.nasa.gov/naif/index.html


Representatives from NAIF occasionally hold SPICE training classes at their facilities, but will also travel and provide off-site training if there is enough interest. We have about a dozen interested students, faculty, and other researchers at Boston University and would like to gather expressions of interest from space scientists and engineers in the Boston area.


If you are interested in potentially attending a SPICE training in early 2018 in the Boston area, please contact me at


mfelici at bu.edu



Thank you very much for your attention


Best regards,


Marianna Felici
