Yuri’s Night and Explore Mars are teaming up to celebrate the upcoming landing of the Mars Science Laboratory, the largest and most advanced rover to explore the Red Planet. Yuri’s Night will be providing registration services and logistical support for celebrations and events to be held around the world on August 5, the projected landing date for the MSL. “We’re excited to help Explore Mars celebrate this space milestone,” said Yuri’s Night Executive Director Ryan Kobrick. “Yuri’s Night, the World Space Party, is uniquely suited to help organize and promote space-based celebrations of all shapes and sizes, and we look forward to the successful landing of the Mars Science Laboratory in August!”
