Another one of these teleconferences that brings expectations and attracts a lot of interest. The previous one I wrote about happened on 15th November 2010 and attracted all kind of people. Given it's cryptic title (NASA Announces Televised Chandra News Conference About Discovery of Exceptional Object), some were having exaggerated expectations as you can see from the comments on that article.

This media teleconference is going to reveal new images of the Apollo landing sites as taken from the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO). Live stream from teleconference will also be available together with some supporting materials that you can look at. Visit the original NASA announcement for more details.
