Distinct advantages of building a Lunar Crater Radio Telescope (LCRT) on the far side include i) isolation from radio noise due to the Earth’s iono- sphere, orbiting satellites, and the Sun, ii) days of un- interrupted dark/cold sky viewing during lunar night, and iii) terrain geometry naturally suited for con- structing the largest mesh antenna structure in the So- lar System. A key challenge to constructing LCRT on the Moon is related to the complexity of deploying a Figure 1: Illustration of the Lunar Crater Radio Tele- 1-km diameter antenna and hanging receiver within a scope (LCRT) concept.

  • Using Grass in Planetary Geology. 1 Introduction 2
    Proceedings of the Open source GIS - GRASS users conference 2002 - Trento, Italy, 11-13 September 2002 Identifying wrinkle ridges structures from Mars MGS and Viking mission data: using Grass in planetary geology. Alessandro Frigeri*, Costanzo Federico*, Giorgio Minelli*, Cristina Pauselli*, Cristina Caldarella * Dipartimento di Scienze della Terra, Geologia Strutturale e Geofisica, Universit`a degli Studi di Perugia, P.zza Universit`a 1, 06100 Perugia, ITALY, tel. ++39 0755852623, Fax ++39 0755852603, e-mail [email protected] Abstract The numerous missions to Mars have sent information about the red planet during last decades. Recently it has been shown that Mars has ice on its poles and that ice could be probably present all over the planet subsurface. The presence of ice on subsurface could drive particular geological structures. The so called 'wrinkle ridges' structures could be related to this. Grass GIS has been used to import and store in a common geospatial database Viking image data and the latest Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) data. GRASS raster based analysis at different resolution has been used to identify wrinkle structures. The image modules are used to align Viking data with Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter (MOLA) DEM. 1 Introduction The large quantity of data coming from missions to Mars made necessary to deal with an efficient system of storage/retrieval of these data. Planetary Data System (PDS) represents a good example of distributed archiving system. The analysis of the data is thereafter difficult due to different reference systems and data heterogeneity. In this work GRASS GIS has been used to import and analyse dataset from MGS and Viking PDS archives.

  • Morphometry of Small Recent Impact Craters on Mars: Size and Terrain Dependence, Short-Term Modification W
    Morphometry of small recent impact craters on Mars: size and terrain dependence, short-term modification W. A. Watters,1 L. M. Geiger,1 M. Fendrock,1 R. Gibson,1 Abstract. Most recent studies of crater morphometry on Mars have addressed large craters (D> 5 km) using elevation models derived from laser altimetry. In the present work, we examine a global population of small (25 m ≤ D ≤ 5 km), relatively well- preserved simple impact craters using HiRISE stereo-derived elevation models. We find that scaling laws from prior studies of large simple craters generally overestimate the depth and volume at small diameters. We show that crater rim curvature exhibits a strong di- ameter dependence that is well-described by scaling laws for D< 1 km. Above this di- ameter, upper rim slopes begin to exceed typical repose angles and crater rims sharpen significantly. This transition is likely the result of gravity-driven collapse of the upper cavity walls during crater formation or short-term modification. In addition, we iden- tify a tendency for small craters (D < 500 m) to be more conical than large craters, and we show that the average cavity cross-section is well-described by a power law with exponent ∼ 1.75 (neither conical nor paraboloidal). We also conduct a statistical com- parison of crater subpopulations to illuminate trends with increasing modification and target strength. These results have important implications for describing the “initial con- dition” of simple crater shape as a function of diameter and geological setting, and for understanding how impact craters are modified on the martian surface over time.

  • Mars: Life, Subglacial Oceans, Abiogenic Photosynthesis, Seasonal Increases and Replenishment of Atmospheric Oxygen
    Open Astron. 2020; 29: 189–209 Review Article Rhawn G. Joseph*, Natalia S. Duxbury, Giora J. Kidron, Carl H. Gibson, and Rudolph Schild Mars: Life, Subglacial Oceans, Abiogenic Photosynthesis, Seasonal Increases and Replenishment of Atmospheric Oxygen https://doi.org/10.1515/astro-2020-0020 Received Sep 3, 2020; peer reviewed and revised; accepted Oct 12, 2020 Abstract: The discovery and subsequent investigations of atmospheric oxygen on Mars are reviewed. Free oxygen is a biomarker produced by photosynthesizing organisms. Oxygen is reactive and on Mars may be destroyed in 10 years and is continually replenished. Diurnal and spring/summer increases in oxygen have been documented, and these variations parallel biologically induced fluctuations on Earth. Data from the Viking biological experiments also support active biology, though these results have been disputed. Although there is no conclusive proof of current or past life on Mars, organic matter has been detected and specimens resembling green algae / cyanobacteria, lichens, stromatolites, and open apertures and fenestrae for the venting of oxygen produced via photosynthesis have been observed. These life-like specimens include thousands of lichen-mushroom-shaped structures with thin stems, attached to rocks, topped by bulbous caps, and oriented skyward similar to photosynthesizing organisms. If these specimens are living, fossilized or abiogenic is unknown. If biological, they may be producing and replenishing atmospheric oxygen. Abiogenic processes might also contribute to oxygenation via sublimation and seasonal melting of subglacial water-ice deposits coupled with UV splitting of water molecules; a process of abiogenic photosynthesis that could have significantly depleted oceans of water and subsurface ice over the last 4.5 billion years.

The spiral line is what we see when we look out into space, spiraling back into time to a smaller and smaller universe. Space may be spinning in relationship to time, also notice the golden ratio. It looks as if space/time may have a fractal dimension of 1.618. At the center of the graph is the beginning of time. If you study this model closely, you will notice that space expanded at a rate far greater than the speed of light. Originally drawn in 1997. In the beginning unity. The distinction between the one and the many or inside and outside could be visualized as a M ö bius transformation of a sphere, Klein bottle, or maybe a torus or double torus, expressing itself as one, then two, then three dimensions.
