General Information

The next ACE Team meeting is to be held February 7 to 8 at Caltech. It will be a 2 day meeting. The first 1.5 days will be devoted to the science and operations reports similar to last time. The last afternoon (from 1 to ~5 pm on Thursday) will involve a smaller group (membership TBD) and be devoted to planning for the Senior Review Proposal.

(For those of you involved in Voyager, the Voyager Team is meeting at JPL Feb. 5 and 6.)

While you are at the meeting messages can be sent to you at (626) 395-6611 and faxes can be sent to (626) 449-8676.

We have obtained a waiver from the Pasadena authorities that allows all-day parking on Arden Road on Feb. 7 and 8. Arden Road is a residential street off of California Blvd., directly South of Downs Lab (building 47) on the Caltech Map.

Internet Access
Guest accounts have been set up to enable you to access the internet. Terminals will be available in the Synchrotron, Room 204 from 8:00 am - 5:00 pm. Caltech Space Radiation Lab personnel at the meeting should be able to guide you there.

We have obtained a waiver from the Pasadena authorities that allows all-day parking on Arden Road on Feb. 7 and 8. Arden Road is a residential street off of California Blvd., directly South of Downs Lab (building 47) on the Caltech Map.

The meeting is in the 2nd floor lounge of Winnett Center, which is building 51 on the Caltech Map. Winnett center and several likely parking spots are noted on the map. We recommend you park either on Arden Road, or in the California Blvd. parking lot (South of campus) or in the new parking structure on Wilson Ave. (East of campus). In the parking lots, park only in unmarked parking spaces, otherwise you're likely to get ticketed or towed. It's less than 5 minutes walk from either lot to Winnett center.
