\no Jim Green, director, NASA\u2019s Planetary Division, Science Mission Directorate, NASA Headquarters, Washington
\no Ed Stone, Voyager project scientist, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena
\no Alan Stern, New Horizons principal investigator, Southwest Research Institute, Boulder, Colorado<\/p>\n

\u2022 The 2-3 p.m. event will include several New Horizons science team members giving personal accounts of their work during the Voyager Neptune encounter and their new assignments on the Pluto mission. Panel participants include:<\/p>\n

o Moderator: David Grinspoon, Planetary Science Institute, Tucson, Arizona
\no Fran Bagenal, University of Colorado, Boulder
\no Bonnie Buratti, NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, California
