Our regularly scheduled club meeting at the Valencia branch of the Santa Clarita Public Library.

Our guest Speaker is Bob Balaram from JPL giving a talk on the Mars Helicopter project.

The Mars Helicopter is a payload on the upcoming Mars 2020 rover mission with the goal of demonstrating over the course of a 30-day mission, powered, autonomous aerial flight of a small ~4 lb helicopter in the thin atmosphere of Mars. Bob Balaram, the Chief Engineer and originator of this mission concept, will talk about the design, testing and operations of the helicopter, and what the future exploration of Mars could look like if this demonstration is successful.

These meetings are free and open to the public.
