NASA is accepting applications from science and engineering
post-docs, recent PhDs, and doctoral students for its 22nd Annual
Planetary Science Summer School, which will hold two separate
sessions this summer (19-23 July and 2-6 August) at the Jet
Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif. During the program,
student teams will carry out the equivalent of an early mission
concept study, prepare a proposal authorization review presentation,
present it to a review board, and receive feedback. At the end of
the week, students will have a clearer understanding of the life
cycle of a robotic space mission; relationships between mission
design, cost, and schedule; and the tradeoffs necessary to stay
within cost and schedule while preserving the quality of
science. Applications are due 1 May 2010. Partial financial support
is available for a limited number of individuals. Further
information is available at http://pscischool.jpl.nasa.gov.
