Icy Worlds Projects
Crater Relaxation and Stereo Imaging of the Icy Satellites of Jupiter and Saturn
Monday, November 1, 2010 - 10:33am
Understanding the evolution of Solar System diversity is a top-level question identified by the 2006 NASA Solar System Exploration Roadmap.
Terrestrial Planet Geologic History Investigations
Thursday, July 15, 2010 - 3:31pm
This project includes studies of the geological history of Mercury, Mars, and the satellites of Jupiter and Pluto, plus mission support and public outreach activities.
Dynamic Response of the Environment at the Moon (DREAM)
Wednesday, April 1, 2009 - 2:15pm
Study of the lunar environment, including dust and extreme environmental conditions, to support missions such as LADEE, LRO, etc.
Multispectral Analysis and Photometry of Galileo Europa Data
Tuesday, February 3, 2009 - 10:02am
A project to analyze data from Jupiter's moon Europa to identify the origin and composition of non-ice deposits on the surface.
Origins of Outer Planet Regular Satellites
Friday, August 15, 2008 - 2:22pm
Investigation into the source of the solids that led to the formation of the regular satellites of the giant planets.
Formation of Planet-Satellite Systems
Friday, August 15, 2008 - 2:20pm
