Congrats to PLANETAS grad student @AliviaEng for receiving a NASA FINESST grant!!! 🎉🙌🎊🎉🙌👋 She’s been using HiRISE Color Data in tandem with Mastcam VNIR spectral data from Curiosity to help map Gale crater, Mars! @GeorgiaTechEAS@GTSciences
Organic Carbon and Ca-Rich Carbonate Detections in Soils of the Northern Plains, Mars: Evaluation of Unreported Data From the Mars Phoenix Scout's Thermal Evolved Gas Analyzer (TEGA). https://t.co/Zi57QslaZH Phoenix site soils: highest soil carbon concentration of any on Mars.
Mapping and Characterizing the Northern Fan Deposits in Jezero Crater, Mars. https://t.co/PsI4bFgSeE Study finds the northern fan shows evidence of deposition from Sava Vallis, but part of its western region could be a distal part of the western delta.
In today’s episode, explore how observations from the Arecibo radio telescope may hold the key to unraveling one of the greatest astronomical mysteries of the past 50 years. 🔭👽

So excited to share my first blog post for NASA's Mars 2020 rover! Here's an inside look at how the team works together to map out scientific areas of interest for the rover to explore. https://t.co/lrORPsyYxN via @NASA#Mars2020#perseverance
At #GSA2024?? Check out PLANETAS grad student, Sharissa Thompson's (@Reese9281) talk Monday at 1:30PM (TODAY) on using thermal infrared data for constraining grain size (&sorting!) info of Mars analog alluvial fan! 🚀https://t.co/O3NAQcEXvD
Integrated Spectral and Compositional Analysis for the Lunar Tsiolkovskiy Crater. https://t.co/l8xBjdhkVb Study produces a 10-unit Spectral Units map conveying the spectral and compositional properties within the Tsiolkovskiy crater.
An Orbital Comparison of a Late Mantling Unit on Aeolis Mons With Other Erosion-Resistant Strata Explored by MSL in Gale Crater, Mars. https://t.co/fogD8T2igC Newly mapped mantling unit has sfc and spectral features similar to the marker band; both differ from surrounding strata
12 years ago, I was getting ready for my first year in high school and remember the excitement of watching Curiosity land on the TV. 12 years later, I have the incredible opportunity of being a part of this mission. Happy landiversary Curiosity!

Water-Limited Hydrothermalism and Volcanic Resurfacing of Eridania Basin, Mars. https://t.co/6pp1e0mndM Study finds that Eridania's northern basin experienced a distinct, possibly longer‐lived aqueous alteration than the southern basins.
Congratulations to @AstroJosePC on winning the NASA FINESST!! 🎊🥳🎊🥳🎊 José is the third doctoral student at Howard University to win behind @exoplanetist and I! 🥳🎊🥳🎊🥳
My 12-year landiversary is a few days away 🎉
From finding evidence Mars once had habitable environments to discovering rocks made of pure sulfur, I’ve done a lot since landing here in 2012.
Do you have any favorite moments of my journey?
Congratulations to Dr. Farrah Simpson @farsimpson on a successful defense! This makes her the first Black woman to earn a PhD in Physics from Brown University. #BlackInPhysics
