We hope you can join us this evening either in-person in #Tucson or virtually for the last fantastic LPL Evening Lecture of the semester.

A new report spotlights the significant impact of LPL and other University of Arizona space sciences activities, which generate $560.5 million every year for the local economy. news.arizona.edu/story/economic…

Seismic activity at Cerberus Fossae, Mars may be due to a mantle plume. Read more: ow.ly/k3Bv50MFZsV

Many congratulations to the Lunar Flashlight team, including Principal Investigator and LPL alum Dr. Barbara Cohen!

Check out our new work on tectonic modeling on Venus! What started as an @LPItoday intern project on the structural geology of ridge belts on Venus evolved to include additional modeling and exciting implications for heat flux

@WhyjayZ Congrats Whyjay!

Here's a big announcement: I will be joining the Center for Space and Remote Sensing Research at National Central University, Taiwan, starting in February 2023 as an assistant professor. Super excited to work with the amazing people there!

On the first day of Christmas, the universe gave to me... acceptance of my first first-author paper😀…and a positive covid test😠… okay I only wanted one of these...

In loving memory of Dr. Thomas Meixner Tom was a wonderful and kind person, whose larger-than-life approach to being and doing inspired those around him and elevated the community. The world is different without him. He will be missed and loved by all. @uarizona

PhD defenses should be more like weddings. I wanna have a bigass buffet, a best collaborator who'll raise a toast and joke about the time I fucked something up in the field, I wanna throw a binder of papers into a crowd of other grads and whoever catches it will be next to defend

Our work on understanding the influence of topography on large-scale changes observed on Comet 67P's surface was published in @AAS_PSJ this week, so here's a thread describing why it's exciting. ☄️🛰 @ESA_Rosetta @IamComet67P @CornellAstro

Still in a bit of a shock...my @NASA FINESST proposal to study the geophysical evolution of Pluto was accepted!😱🪐So entirely grateful... I think I need to go lay down for a bit

First in-person #LPSC ✅... Gosh I have missed in-person conferences

Not all who wander are lost...some of us are just convinced that we followed the right trail marker but suspiciously haven't seen another in a while....

Abstract 2273 #LPSC2022 On Pluto, we liked Sputnik Basin so much we put a ring on it

So it isn’t just me

@SpaceRockSam future Bad Geology Movie Night?

@rocks_and_jules I just saw this trailer..... I have so many questions

Some hoodoo voodoo out here.....oh and a mantle xenolith #chiricahuanationalmonument

Just received this gift for publishing my first paper! I have the best friends ☺️ If you want to check out said paper: doi.org/10.3847/PSJ/ac…
