SUMMARY:General Meeting – March 2025
DESCRIPTION: Join Zoom\n\nThis meeting’s speaker will present inperson.\n  \nMars Helicopter Telecom\n  \n \nThe highly successful Ingenuity – Mars Helicopter – technology demonstration came to an end in January 2024 after 72 flights over 1000 sols (1.5 Mars years) exploring Mars.  The author led the telecommunications team for Ingenuity from conception through flight operations and describes it here. \n \nCourtney Duncan retired from NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory – California Institute of Technology in July 2021 shortly following the initial demonstration flights of the Mars Helicopter Ingenuity. \nHis 35-year career included support for space shuttle missions and experiments\, GPS radio occultation technology from space\, stellar interferometry\, deep space navigation software\, lunar gravity mapping\, Deep Space Network transponders for deep space CubeSats\, and finally\, Ingenuity telecom. \nCourtney has been a licensed radio amateur with since 1972\, callsign N5BF\, and has been involved in many aspects of the hobby from that time.  He is a past president of the San Bernardino Microwave Society\, a past official of the Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation\, AMSAT-North America\, and of the JPL Amateur Radio Club\, and frequently gives talks on both the Mars Helicopter and on the profound value to society of avocations such as amateur radio.* \nCourtney was married to Viann WD5EHM (SK) for 45 years and has three children\, Viannah KG6GXW\, Katherine KG6HUI\, John KG6HCO\, and two grandchildren.  He is also a classically trained pianist and is routinely involved in a variety of musical performances. \n  \n  \n  \nViews: 2

SUMMARY:General Meeting – February 2025
DESCRIPTION:This is a free and open to the public hybrid event\, held both inperson and online.\nDue to the newly effective insurance requirements\, we regret that we can not allow people under 18 on the Chapman Campus\, they are welcome to attend online.\n Join Zoom\n\nThis meeting’s speaker will present inperson.\n  \n44 years as a “career Martian” at JPL\n  \n  \n \n  \nTim Parker began working at JPL as a consultant and a contractor in January 1981. He carried his experience mapping geomorphology in Utah and Nevada for the Air Force’s MX Missile siting program\, to his search for evidence of what might have happened to the flood waters from Mars’ catastrophic flood channels\, using Viking Orbiter data. By the mid-1980s\, Parker had developed a hypothesis suggesting that Mars had an ancient ocean that left behind familiar lakeshore landforms\, comparable to those of Pleistocene lakes Bonneville and Lahontan. In 1987\, Parker became a JPL employee. He has worked on numerous planetary missions\, including CRAF (Comet Rendezvous/Asteroid Flyby)\, MRSR (Mars Rover Sample Return study)\, Magellan Venus orbiter\, Mars Pathfinder\, Mars Exploration Rovers (Spirit and Opportunity)\, Mars Science Laboratory (Curiosity)\, Initial Heliscout (later became Inegnuity)\, Mars Science Helicopter study\, and Mars 2020 (Perseverance). Beginning with the Mars Global Surveyor mission in 1997\, a flood of new\, high-resolution imagery and topography data has become available for Mars\, enabling Parker to further refine and update the ocean hypothesis. Parker is continuing that work in retirement. \n \nViews: 2
