Greetings Meteorite-list,

We cordially invite you to an upcoming event at the University of
Arizona's Lunar & Planetary Lab on July 20. It is a bit off-topic
regarding meteorites. However, you might enjoy hearing about
cutting-edge research in planetary science exploration and trying fun
hands-on activities, too.

Best regards,
Dolores Hill
