Event

Monthly SBAU meeting in Fleischmann Auditorium at the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History.

Our speaker will be Chief Pilot of the Ingenuity Helicopter, Martin Cacan, who will highlight some of the adventures—both the difficulties and excitements—of Ingenuity's three-year-long series of flights on Mars.

This will be a hybrid meeting, so you can attend via Zoom if you wish. Contact our webmaster for the meeting information (or see the email sent to our current members).
