NASA and Project Hail Mary

I'm so excited to share that I'll be introducing a special showing of Project Hail Mary at Oak Park's Lake Theatre!

Project Hail Mary is an amazing novel by Andy Weir, who also wrote The Martian.

I'll be wearing my NASA Ambassador hat and my writer hat to cover:
() Science vs science fiction
() NASA's search for life, in and beyond our solar system
() Creating worlds and characters in fiction
() And you'll even get to touch a moon rock!

I've been a NASA Ambassador for nearly a decade, and love talking to people of all ages about space science and NASA missions. From Telescope Nights to classroom presentations and everything in-between, it's always great meeting people and sharing knowledge and passion.

I'm so excited that my first novel, ISAAC AND THE SKY, will finally be out in the world!

And to celebrate, I'm holding a book launch and star party.

The event is free to attend. Purchase of the book is separate, but if you have it I'll sign it! After a brief program inside, with snacks and a presentation about the book, we'll head outside to look through some telescopes. Weather permitting, we'll have a nice view of Saturn.
