Event description

Dr. Mitch Schulte (Lead programmer for NASA for the Mars Rover programme) will deliver an introduction about the Mars Rover, Opportunity.  Good Night Oppy is a heartwarming documentary that follows the journey of Opportunity ("Oppy"), a NASA rover originally sent to Mars for a 90-day mission that miraculously lasted nearly 15 years. Through stunning visuals, archival footage, and emotional narration, the film chronicles Oppy's unexpected longevity, scientific discoveries, and the deep bond that developed between the rover and the team of scientists and engineers who guided her.
