Hi friends,

After the sold out events with Prof Arthur Benjamin, I am very excited to
announce the arrival of Janet Ivey form Janet's Planet in March.  We are
delighted to announce that we have 2 Cape Town venues (one in the Southern
Suburbs and one in the northern suburbs) booked for the public to attend a
presentation by this incredible presenter.  I have had the privilege of
working with her on space camps in the USA and at the Humans to Mars Summit
in Washington DC.  She is regularly on CNN to chat about the latest events
in space and her show will appeal to all the space fans out there.  We have
also made the show a little earlier so that the junior space fans can enjoy
the show.  Bring your cellphone with as there will be a fun Kahoot quiz at
the end and the top three participants will each win a cool prize.

With a list of achievements like this, you know you will not want to miss
her space talks!

  • Creator and CEO of Janet's Planet, Inc.
  • President of Explore Mars
  • American Astronautical Society's 2022 recipient of the Sally K Ride

  • Author of Unsung Genius Book Series, Celebrating Unsung Women in
    Science

    for students 3-8
