Meteorites at Camp SESE 2023
This year, Center members Sam Campbell (Space Grant Intern), Imène Kerraouch (Postdoctoral Research Scholar) and Eric Orson (Undergraduate Student) had incoming SESE students join them for hands-on meteorite experiences and discussions, showcasing BCMS' collection of travelling touchable meteorites (aka the meteorite petting zoo).
Students participate in this 3-day, 2-night excursion to ASU’s unique facility at Tonto Creek Camp, Friday-Sunday lunch the weekend after Labor Day. At 5600’ in the Ponderosa Pines near Payson, AZ (1.5 hours from ASU’s Tempe campus) Tonto Creek Camp offers a welcome escape from the summer heat in a beautiful wilderness area.
