@rocdocmars Can you remind me which rock on Mars is named for The Golden Roast coffee shop at UTK?

@Ericmsavage How was it?

@mi5280 Look at the angles on the slab. Got to be a piece of columnar basalt. I remember seeing some pahoehoe on the beach when she’s with her mother.

@mi5280 I was pleasantly surprised by the various details that they put in Moana!

@SquigglyVolcano @theAGU So you’re saying DART scored a 360% on its final? Sorry grading finals on the brain 😅

@tanyaofmars I’m imagining an international historic hiking/backpacking trail. You start at the landing site and follow the journey hitting all the key spots/discoveries. I feel like this would preserve the history more fully. Maybe it could be both with the visitor center at the end.

@UTK_EPS will have several Grad #teachingassistant positions open for the Geology department in the Spring of 2023! Deadline to apply is Oct 15th so it's coming up pretty quick. If you've been considering an MS or PhD in #geology there will be guaranteed funding as a TA!

[Robert Jacobsen @RobOnMars]

Today in lecture a student asked about something I’ve never considered: are there any examples of a hot spot going from beneath oceanic to continental lithosphere? Or vice versa? #geology

@jacob199723 @drobert22 @knoxscruffs @USLLeagueTwo We need a good conspiracy to get us through the off season!

A 🧵 on burnout
