  1. If you should want to observe a Toba or Yellowstone supervolcano exploding from 10 parsecs away.

    Ostberg et al. 2024, "The Prospect of Detecting Volcanic Signatures on an ExoEarth Using Direct Imaging" - hou.usra.edu/meetings/lpsc2024

    via @fraser

    ("Direct Imaging" is a term of art here. It refers to planets being imaged separately from stars, but still appearing as dots - just very interesting ones. The aerosols & gas from an eruption would show up in disc-integrated spectra.)

  2. At LPSC
    "favorite" if you get it
    Totally genius

  3. Let me finish this #LPSC2024 thread with a #DwarfPlanetCeres paper, covering features I always found amusing in #DawnMission photos. Attached is one of my favs, in Kupalo crater (right "besides" Juling) photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/jpeg

  4. @setiinstitute There will be a talk about these Mars volcano findings in eastern Noctis Labyrinthus this afternoon given by Pascal Lee at 4:50 p.m. at #LPSC2024. Here is Lee and Sourabh Shubham's abstract: hou.usra.edu/meetings/lpsc2024

  5. Wow! I can see why Io people go ga-ga over that moon.

    The latest jupitershine JUNO image are gorgeous!

  6. I'm excited to announce that my PyHAT software is once again publicly available!

    code.usgs.gov/astrogeology/pyh

    If you work with spectra or multivariate regression and don't want to reinvent the wheel, check it out. If it doesn't do what you need it to do, let me know and we can add capabilities to make it work for you!

  7. Starting Day 2 in the DART session. At #LPSC2022, there was so much talk about how cool DART was going to be. At #LPSC2023, there were so many pretty pix/early results of DART giving Dimorphos the old 1-2. Now at #LPSC2024 it’s on to the serious detective work of what DART found.

  9. Addendum:

    "dark comets" are near-Earth asteroids with no observed outgassing but measurable non-gravitational acceleration that cannot be explained by radiation pressure.

  10. Starting the afternoon Icy Moon Science Special Session will be Jennifer Scully on Impact Craters as Windows into the Subsurfaces of Icy Moons.

  11. Austin et al. 2024, "Venus' windblown ejecta deposits may not align with presently observed winds" - hou.usra.edu/meetings/lpsc2024.

    Interesting idea of using impact ejecta as a tracer for prevailing winds on Venus in the distant past.

  12. Taylor et al. 2024 discussing "dark comets": Near-Earth asteroids with no observed outgassing but measurable non-gravitational acceleration - hou.usra.edu/meetings/lpsc2024

    Consistent with a combination of episodically putting out just a bit of water vapor and spinning up to breakup.

  13. I am not attending #LPSC2024, but I am reading through abstracts.

    Dong et al. 2024, "Detection of airbursts on Titan with Dragonfly" - hou.usra.edu/meetings/lpsc2024

    Knowing the frequency of few-meter impactors at Saturn would be very interesting.

  14. If you're attending #LPSC2024, I will be handing out a zine discussing trans issues! I have an initial print run of 40 copies available - keep an eye out on the swag table, for me, or my Tuesday evening poster in the Planetary Spatial Data Infrastructure section!

  19. Lunar and Planetary Science Conference #LPSC2024 abstract submitted! Number 1692.

    "Dune Mixing in the Huygens and Dragonfly Landing Sites Region, Titan."

    And, of course, the abstract haiku:

    Like Earth like Titan,
    At beach or in dune terrains,
    Sand gets everywhere.

  20. #LPSC2024 Haiku
    As rover wheels turn, // MARDI sees the landscape pass. // Rocks crowd the window.

  21. Started work on my abstract for #LPSC2024 today! I've been slowly mosaicking frames from the MARDI drive videos #Curiosity collected while exploring #MarkerBandValley. Once they're georeferenced, I hope they'll be of major use to scientists working to piece together the environmental transitions taking place on Mars when the Marker Band was deposited! Here's a roughly 4 m x 1 m segment of the drive performed on Sol 3648 (November 10, 2022).
