Today in the news, we’ll hear from the Uber team as they prepare for the official launch of their on-demand black car service here in Honolulu. Then joining us today is Mary Donohue from the UH Sea Grant Extension to tell us about the upcoming Rainwater Catchment Workshop. Finally, we talk to former astronaut Ed Lu and astronomer Rob Jedicke about scanning the skies for asteroids, especially the ones on a close encounter collision course with Earth. You can also sign up for Ed’s talk tomorrow (8/15/13) here.
