The newly created Outer Planets Program (OPP) Directorate at NASA
Headquarters seeks to synthesize the best of recent thought about how
planning should proceed during the next decade for exploration of the outer
planets. This Forum will provide members of the international planetary
community (including technologists, scientists, and engineers from
universities, industry, and government labs) a chance to share their best
ideas.
Those wishing to attend the Forum must submit an abstract for a 10-minute
oral presentation. The deadline for submission of abstracts is Wednesday,
January 31, 2001, 6:00 p.m. U.S. Eastern Standard Time. Abstracts MUST be
submitted using the electronic submission form found at the meeting Web site
(see address below). Note that abstracts submitted by e-mail or fax will NOT
be considered. Attendance at the Forum will be limited to those whose
abstracts have been selected.
