3-25 Journey to Mars Overview at the Exploratorium, (Weekends only): As NASA’s Mars Exploration Rover lands on Mars, the Exploratorium plans a month of Mars-related weekend events to celebrate and fascinate. Simulate the challenges faced by NASA scientists by designing a contraption to protect an egg when launched from heights of fifteen feet. Meet the author of the definitive book on mapping Mars’s fascinating terrain. Watch insect-like robots clamber over obstacles; marvel at a fire that burns without oxygen; cheer on robotic rovers made from LEGOs, as well as their school-aged inventors, and cartoon your own version of Mars. All events are free with museum admission. n
