Our Lunar Workforce Series is back! This time we're hearing from Dr. James Tuttle Keane (James Tuttle Keane) to learn about Endurance, a long range rover concept that will traverse across the South Pole-Aitken basin on the Moon.

Join us on December 8th at 9 AM PST / 12 PM EST / 5 PM UTC for this talk, followed by Q&A. Register and find more information here: nextgenlunar.space/events/lunar-w…

Sol in, sol out! I completed 1,000 Martian days…and my work is far from done. Learn more about my unique rock collection, travels across Jezero Crater’s ancient river and lake system, and what’s next for my exploration plans: go.nasa.gov/4ajURvd

Update #2 on Peregrine Mission One:

Two abstracts this year! #2308 GPR unveils / Polygons on Earth and Mars / Volcanic or ice? #2507 Surface roughness shows / Which shadows astronauts pick / Searching for Moon ice LPSC Haiku #LPSC2024

Let's talk about #periods while doing #fieldwork. How do you handle them? Tampons and ziploc bags? Menstrual cups? Period panties? Suppressing them? My inquiring mind wants to know... Breaking the menstruation taboo to make fieldwork more inclusive nature.com/articles/d4158…

Flight controllers commanded a lunar correction maneuver to raise Odysseus’ orbit overnight and updated the anticipated landing time to 1524 CST. We expect the landing stream to start on the IM-1 web page and NASA TV at 1400 CST. The content on both streams is identical.

If you’re at #LPSC2024 come check out my talk on Tues at 9.55am in the lunar session! I’ll be talking about how astronauts can use surface roughness to sample water ice on the Moon!

Another #LPSC2024 plug, I’ll be presenting my work with ARCHIVED - NASA's Perseverance Mars Rover and ARCHIVED - NASA Expeditions at the poster session this evening, #113. Come learn about using GPR to investigate polygonal fractures!

Come to #LPSC2024 poster #1460 TONIGHT (Thursday) to hear about Kris Laferriere (Kris Laferriere)'s work on the spiral troughs at Mars' north pole! We're finding ice accumulation rates are likely controlled by regional processes whereas retreat rates seem to dictated locally.

There's still time to #SendYourName to the Moon! Sign up by Friday, March 15, to add your name to our VIPER rover—which will explore the Moon's deep shadows in search of lunar ice: go.nasa.gov/3S16kYf

Exciting news: We have selected the first science instruments designed for astronauts to deploy on the surface of the Moon during #Artemis III. #WeAreGoing! Here are the three selected payloads: go.nasa.gov/49emdRE

These Women@NASA rock! 🪨 NASA field scientists detect underground structures with Ground Penetrating Radar, conduct seismic experiments, study the geochemistry of lava caves, and analyze the chemical composition of volcanic craters. 🌋#WHM

Awesome to get featured for Women’s History Month! 💪🏽👩🏽‍🚀

Congratulations to Intuitive Machines, Lunar Outpost, and Astrolab for being selected to move forward in developing the #Artemis lunar terrain vehicle! This Moon rover will allow future astronauts to travel far on the lunar surface: go.nasa.gov/440SeM9

Many people have no idea how these things work. For example, right now, as a Brazilian, I can't accept invitations to speak at conferences in Europe because my visa to work in the U.S. has expired. I am not illegal; I have a work contract with the University of California until

We're collaborating with SGAC to host an event on April 21, featuring Dr. Kerri Donaldson Hanna (Kerri DonaldsonHanna) talking about Lunar Geology! Register for the event here: eventbrite.com/e/achieved-aca…

Sometimes if you want to study the Moon, you have to bring the Moon to you! I bet most geologists don't think they'll be working with dynamite when they start studying rocks, but we created a simulated Moon in the 1970s for astronaut training that you can still visit today!

This Thursday, May 16th at 1 PM Eastern, we are hosting an Apollo Transfer of Knowledge panel! We will hear from Professors Carle Pieters and Jim Head on their thoughts and lessons learned from the Apollo era moving forward to Artemis! Register here: zoom.us/webinar/regist…

*Cronch* I ran over a rock and found crystals inside! It's pure sulfur. (And no, it doesn’t smell.) Elemental sulfur is something we’ve never seen before on Mars. We don't know much about these yellow crystals yet, but my team is excited to investigate. go.nasa.gov/4bPdSow
