When astronauts land near the moon's south pole as part of NASA's Artemis program, they likely will find themselves in an unexpected treasure trove of clues that could help scientists better understand how Earth's only natural satellite came to be. news.arizona.edu/news/moons-big…

We have a ride to the Moon! Exciting news for Lunar-VISE!!! 🚀@FireflyAerospace has been selected as the official lander and rover provider that will take us to the lunar surface in 2028! #LunarVISE #fireflyaerospace #ForwardtotheMoon

@fireflyspace the @Lunar_VISE team is excited to be going to the Moon with you! #ForwardtotheMoon

Can't wait for the YouTube videos in 200 years to be like

Let’s explore how the Moon’s fiery past shaped its hidden water reserves! Don’t miss it! #LunarScience #Geochemistry #Petrology @DrRockChef @astroadistel @bosonicpowers

🚀Shout out to all #PlanetaryScience enthusiasts! Join me at #AGU24 to dive into: "Unraveling Lunar Volatile Mysteries: How Hydrogen Partitioning during Magma Ocean Crystallization controls the Moon’s Water Budget" 🌊🌔 📍 207B, Convention Center 📅 11 Dec 2024 ⏰ 14:50 PM

🌋🌓 How hot is the Moon's interior? This week in News & Views, Arkadeep Roy from the University of Arizona explores the selenotherm—the Moon’s internal temperature using experimental petrology, geochemistry, & geophysical modelling. blogs.egu.eu/divisions/gd/2… #LunarScience #Moon

@uazgeos PhD candidate Arkadeep Roy (@deep_magma) published a 'cool' EGU blog on his research about how 'hot' the Moon can get. Check it out!

⚡ Power move: @EuropaClipper's solar arrays flanking the body of the spacecraft have fully unfolded. This means that the spacecraft now has a reliable source of power for the rest of its journey to Jupiter and tour of the Jovian system! go.nasa.gov/4eHSbcn

It's official: @EuropaClipper has set sail to an ocean world 🚀 go.nasa.gov/3zZAMga

Looks like America has a weaker negative europium anomaly and more HREE than the other nations

Our latest work, published in the Journal of Geophysical Research - Planets, that documents the Wolf crater complex on the Moon as a silicic volcanic caldera. doi.org/10.1029/2023JE… #lpsc

New paper out with @DrRockChef and Mihai Ducea! We conducted partial melting experiments on hydrous arclogite and find that these rocks are possible sources of alkaline-silicate magmas: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

@yishen_z @charlier_b @OlivierNamur Great to see SLI. We found SLI during partial melting of urKREEP in a preliminary study by @deep_magma . Definitely a way to form high Si magmas.

urKREEP is a hypothetical component from the last dregs of lunar magma ocean crystallization but never found as a rock type. Ever wonder what it might be? with @charlier_b, @OlivierNamur, and coauthors, here is what we found in our new EPSL paper: 1/8 doi.org/10.1016/j.epsl…

AABC Meets: Anaya Mallik, Part III Arizona Astrobiology Center member Ananya Mallik (Geosciences, University of Arizona) offers advice to students who are interested in astrobiology. @DrRockChef @uazresearch @uazgeos

(2/2) The Gruithuisen domes will be explored by NASA’s @Lunar_VISE mission in 2026! Profound admiration and deep gratitude to my mentors and collaborators @DrRockChef @jessrocks88 @KerriDHanna Pranabendu Moitra

(1/2) Thrilled to share that I’ve received the #FINESST (Future Investigators in NASA Earth and Space Science and Technology) award to advance my research on the petrogenesis of enigmatic silicic magmas on the Moon, like the Gruithuisen domes. 🌑🌋🔭

@AnuvaAnannya @DrRockChef @uazgeos @geosociety @MinSocAm Thanks @AnuvaAnannya, fellow FINESST fellow 😛

@DrRockChef @deep_magma @uazgeos @geosociety @MinSocAm Many congratulations, Arka da! So proud of you!

🎉Congratulations🎉 to @uazgeos PhD candidate Arkadeep Roy for being awarded a NASA FINESST Grant! This is another feather in his cap. Arka was also recently awarded the @geosociety Research Grant and has previously received the @MinSocAm Research Grant.
