Alan Stern as New Horizons Reaches Jupiter

Airdate: Monday, February 26, 2007

Two very different encounters with Jupiter this week. First up is Alan Stern, Principal Investigator for the New Horizons mission, with an update on this week's flyby. Then a special visit with folksinger Cheryl Wheeler to talk about and hear "Orbiting Jupiter," her anthem for astronomers. Emily Lakdawalla reminds us that New Horizons has more to do after it passes Pluto, and Bruce Betts is on the road for his What's Up conversation with Mat, and a new space trivia contest.
