The Third Annual Computational Aeroacoustics (CAA) Workshop on Benchmark Problems will be held November 8–10, 1999, at the Ohio Aerospace Institute, Brook Park, Cleveland, Ohio. The workshop's objective is to promote the application of computational methods in aeroacoustics. For this workshop, the Scientific Committee has chosen fan noise as its theme. There are six categories of benchmark problems, four of which are related to fan noise. Workshop participants are requested to solve one or more problems in any problem category and submit numerical solutions for evaluation. Submissions are invited on the solutions of the test cases at http://www.math.fsu.edu/~smith/caawbp99.html In addition to the benchmark problems, the workshop will feature an Industrial Panel. Representatives from industry will discuss the relevance of CAA for industrial applications. NASA's Glenn Research Center is sponsoring this workshop. For workshop registration and lodging information, call Dennis L. Huff at Glenn at 216/433-3913, fax at 216/433-3918, or e-mail to Dennis.L.Huff@lerc.nasa.gov

The 8th Annual Space Frontier Conference, one of the leading annual commercial space conferences, will be held September 23–26, 1999, at the Sheraton Gateway near Los Angeles International Airport. Join leaders of private space enterprise, government, finance and the media on topics ranging from commercial space marketplaces of today, such as reusable launch vehicles and the International Space Station, to potential markets of tomorrow, such as space-based solar power, the Moon, Mars and asteroid mining.

A workshop titled Mars 2001: Integrated Science in Preparation for Sample Return and Human Exploration will be held October 2–4, 1999, in Houston, Texas. The Science Operations Working Group for 2001 will be facilitating this workshop. Through talks, exhibits and presentations, including all active and planned missions, the workshop is intended to increase awareness of the missions' goals and potential and to give the science community opportunity for input. Although a new mission will not emerge from this workshop, there are many opportunities for experimental procedures, interactions between experiments and operational sequencing to be geared toward scientific questions. For more information, call LeBecca Simmons at the Lunar Planetary Institute at 281/486-2158, fax at 281/486-2160, or e-mail to simmons@lpi.jsc.nasa.gov Or visit http://cass.jsc.nasa.gov/meetings/marsmiss99/marsmiss99.1st.html
