The DPS is pleased to announce that this year a trip will be organized to the Space Expo, next to Estec, Noordwijk.
We as earth subsurface engineers / petrophysicists / geologists will have ample opportunity to explore how Estec is doing similar work on celestial bodies. It would be interesting to know how other scientists evaluate rocks hundreds of millions km away.
In Space Expo we will visit the exhibition and there will be a short presentation of 30 minutes by the Space Expo Director Mr. Rob van de Berg, who is a (earth) geologist by background.
Venue:
Thursday 23rd September 2010, leaving from the old Mijnbouw building, Mijnbouwstraat 120 at 12:00 hours. A chartered bus will bring all participants to the location and back.
We expect to leave Space Expo again around 15:00 hours. We stop at Noordwijk beach for some afternoon drinks and snacks.
