The next IMAGE team meeting will take place at the
National Space Science & Technology Center (NSSTC)
in Huntsville, AL starting on October 31 at 3:00 p.m. CDT
and ending at 12:00 p.m. on November 2. No special
arrangements will be required for participating foreign
nationals. I do request notification from those planning
to attend, so I can get a head-count.
The NSSTC is located on the south-west corner of Bradford and Sparkman
Drives on the property of the University of Alabama in Huntsville. The
visitor entrance is on the south side of the building. There is parking
on the south, east, and west sides of the building. This location is
less than a mile north of Interstate 565 on Sparkman Drive and no more
than about 15 minutes from the airport. There are many hotels in the
nearby area. The Huntsville Marriott at the U.S. Space & Rocket Center
(256-830-2222), the University's Bevel Center (256-721-9428; is nearly
across the street from the NSSTC, but has smaller rooms I'm told), the
Courtyard By Marriott (256-837-1400), Country Inn & Suites (256-837-4070),
the Hampton Inn (256-830-9400), the Holiday Inn - Research Park
(256-830-0600), and the La Quinta Inn - Research Park (256-830-2070)
are a few of the nearby hotels.
