In August, LASP hosted Colorado Lt. Gov. Dianne Primavera and other VIPs for the sendoff of SUDA, the LASP dust analyzer developed for the NASA Europa Clipper mission. Four news stations and the Boulder Daily Camera covered the event, which also included representatives from the offices of Sen. Michael Bennet, Sen. John Hickenlooper, and Rep. Joe Neguse, the vice president of operations at FedEx, as well as mission and CU leaders.
LASP hosted a visit from the National Defense University (NDU) Eisenhower School in November. The school’s mission is to build a positive and effective partnership between government and the private sector. The delegation had an opportunity to learn about what LASP is doing to further space science research and how its role is critical in addressing the issues vital for our national security.
In December, LASP welcomed the new Dean of the College of Arts & Sciences Glen Krutz. The tour enhanced his awareness and appreciation of the importance of space sciences on the CU Boulder campus and LASP’s leadership in this area.
