There's a Stardust Educator's Conference this week, and there are about 60 people in the group.
Today, they were given a tour of some of the laboratories at Johnson Space Center, including
the Genesis lab, the Lunar Rock viewing area, and an electron microsope where Everett Gibson
and some of his colleagues were analyzing ALH84001!
