To celebrate World Space Week 2014, the American Institute of Aeronautics & Astronautics (AIAA) proudly presents:

2014 AIAA Space & Sci-Fi Trivia Night

The United Nations declared World Space Week to celebrate space and commemorate the 1957 launch of Sputnik 1 and the 1967 signing of the Outer Space Treaty. 2014 also marks 50 years since the first flyby of Mars and the first multi-crew spaceflight, as well as 40 years since the first flybys of Venus and Mercury. We invite you to celebrate space and join us for a fun evening at the AIAA Space & Sci-Fi Trivia Night. Bring a team or join a team on the night. Teams of up to 6 persons will compete for some great prizes!

There will also be an optional Space & Sci-Fi themed fancy dress competition this year with prizes for the best dressed individual and group. Show up as the crew from a famous sci-fi show or as a swashbuckling character from sci-fi pop culture.

The Fellows a la carte dinners and snacks are available until 8pm with a licensed bar and barista services open until late. Food and drinks are at your own cost.
