Join us for a memorial honoring Dr. Arden Albee, whose leadership and scientific contributions profoundly shaped planetary science at Caltech and NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory. A pioneer in planetary geology and remote sensing, Arden played key roles in major missions—including the Apollo program, Mariner and Viking missions to Mars, and later Mars exploration efforts—advancing our understanding of planetary surfaces and atmospheres.

The program will include reflections from colleagues and collaborators celebrating Arden's scientific legacy, his service to the Caltech–JPL community, and his enduring impact on the exploration of the solar system.
