SUMMARY:Monthly Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Our monthly meetings are generally held on the last Thursday of the month\, 7:00–9:00 pm\, at the Greenbelt Community Center. They are also streamed via Zoom for those who cannot meet in person. We gather at 7:00 for informal discussion\, and the lecture begins at 7:30. \nThis month’s meeting with feature Dr. Louth “Lu” Chou\, will speak on “Searching for Life-as-We-Don’t-Know-It on Future Planetary Missions using Mass Spectrometry.” Her research area is agnostic biosignatures\, requiring life detection methods that identify unknowable\, unfamiliar features and chemistry that may represent processes of life as yet unrecognized.  She is also involved in instrument design for future planetary missions that may search for such life.\n \nDr. Chou\, an astrobiologist and organic chemist\, is currently a postdoctoral research associate at the Center for Space Science and Technology at the University of Maryland Baltimore County\, working on the Sample Analysis at Mars (SAM) instrument suite onboard the Curiosity rover in the Planetary Environments Lab at Goddard Space Flight Center. She loves sharing her work with the public. This is a hybrid in-person/virtual event. It is free and open to the public\, in room 114 of the Greenbelt Community Center. \nJoin via Zoom\n\nURL: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/89328647944?pwd=NklWSXRVdEowUWhUUllZMGIzak5pQT09\nPhone: (301) 715-8592\nMeeting ID: 893 2864 7944\nPasscode: 898333
