  • Another Giant Caldera Volcano?
    www.MantlePlumes.org McCall (2008) http://www.mantleplumes.org/Mercury.html Mercury’s “spider” – another giant caldera volcano? G.J.H. McCall 44 Robert Franklin Way, South Cerney, Glos. GL7 5UD [email protected] Dr Joe McCall, retired, is a former Reader (Associate Professor) of Geology at the University of Western Australia. He also curated the meteorites at the Western Australian Museum during his time in Perth. Besides his professional work on terrestrial geology he has long had an interest in the extraterrestrial extensions of geology, to the Moon, Mars, Mercury and other bodies in the Solar System. He was recently leading editor of a history of Meteoritics and key collections, published by the Geological Society of London, of which he is a Senior Fellow. He was awarded its prestigious Coke medal in 1994. This letter reports the discovery, by means of comparison of a MESSENGER image of part of the Caloris Basin, Mercury, with images of Martian caldera volcanoes, of a very large caldera volcano. The structure, which has been called "the spider" informally by the MESSENGER team, and has hitherto been unexplained, is ~330 km in diameter and shows remarkable similarities to the giant Martian caldera volcanoes Ceraunius Tholus, Uranius Tholus and Tyrrhenia Patera. I have long had an interest in Mercury and regretted its long neglect without follow-ups to the Mariner 10 visit1. I have also written about the giant caldera volcano of Olympus Mons on Mars2. Mercury’s newly revealed and surprising image of a structure within the Caloris Basin, informally named "the spider" by the MESSENGER team, was recently discussed in Science Daily, as downloaded from the Web on 13.3.083 (Figure 1).

Reading the speech at about one third his usual speed, his accent really wasn’t bad. Computerized editing would take his ploddings, squeeze out the extra time, add rhythms and intonations from his English version, and produce something that made him sound almost like a native speaker. Such was the power of mid twenty-first century computer technology and the cultural expectations that drove it. He paused to look at the 3-d screen on the wall near his desk. It was set on “porthole” mode; he could see Earth in the middle, about a third the diameter of the moon as it appeared from Earth. They were still a million kilometers out, a day from aerocapture into an elliptical orbit around the home world. The image looked real; the half that was illumined by the sun was even so bright that it made his eyes water slightly.

  • A Study of the Relative Ages of Olympus Mons, Uranius Tholus, Euripus Mons, and Hecates Tholus
    A Study of the Relative Ages of Olympus Mons, Uranius Tholus, Euripus Mons, and Hecates Tholus Supai Middle School 7th Grade Science Investigations Class May, 2011 Introduction & Hypotheses Science Question: What is the difference in the relative ages of Olympus Mons, Uranius Tholus, Euripus Mons, and Hecates Tholus and their respective cones, calderas, and flanks? Our science question is important because, by finding an answer, we will be able to piece together some of the history of the formation of Martian landscape, which could help us understand if there is a cycle in the formation of volcanoes over time, and if this would also apply to Earth, as well as Mars. This query intrigues us, because its answer will allow us to gain further knowledge of Mars and its geological properties, which will possibly aid further studies into this topic, or pertaining to, these four volcanoes. From previous research, we hypothesize that Uranius Tholus is the oldest volcano. Also, based on the amount of craters that we have found on its surface, we believe that Olympus Mons is the youngest. Background First, we will state all what we learned while we were collecting data for our experimental design. We learned that a volcano is a formation made of the planet’s crust which contains lava and releases out of a caldera (the top part of the volcano). The lava then flows down the cone, or the rising part between the caldera and flank. The flank would be the outer most rim where lava stopped flowing. Magma is lava that has yet to reach a planets surface and is in the mantle.

Preface Welcome to Hawaii! Contained within are the abstracts that were received in response to our announcement of the working group meeting. As you know, the purpose of the MEVTV program is to further the understanding of volcanism, tectonism, and volatiles on Mars, and to explore the interactions among these processes. The purpose of this working group meeting is to focus predominantly on volcanism on Mars, prior to considering the more complex Issues of interactions between volcanism and tectonism or between volcanism and global or regional volatile evolution. We also hope to identify the topical areas of research that will aid the planetary geology community in understanding volcanism on Mars and its relationship to other physical processes.

We have usedthis age and compositionalinformation, together with geologicdata derivedfrom Viking Orbiterimages, to identify25 candidateimpact craters in the Tharsisregion of Mars that couldbe the source crater for these meteorites. None of these craters are close to the size (~100 km diameter)implied by the dynamicalstudy of SNC ejectiondeveloped by Vickery and Melosh (1987). The craters in our study were selectedbecause they are >10 km in diameter, have morphologiesindicative of youngcraters, and satisfyboth the petrologiccriteria of the SNCs and the proposed1.3 Ga crystallizationages.

    Geologic Scene Investigators: Part 1 – Scratching the Surface Setting the Scene Image Information Please look carefully at the images and select those appropriate to the age of the children in your program. The images with the lower numbers should be the most easy for the children to identify. Mix and match to your audience needs! Ways to identify features • Flowing water erodes – or carves – ribbon-like channels across the surface. The flow pattern may be “dendritic," looking like a tree that branches out into progressively finer limbs. The term comes from the Greek, dendrites: tree-like. • Very rapidly flowing water carves wider, deeper channels, often made of several channels "braided" together. Tear-drop shaped islands and large scattered blocks of material are sometimes present. • Volcanos create "cones" or "domes" on the surface. These rise above the surface, and often have a circular bowl at the peak. Note that the sides may be steep, like Mount Rainier or Mount St. Helens, found in the Northwest of the United States. Other volcanos are more gentle, made from runny lava, like the volcanos of Hawaii or many of the volcanos on Mars. The base of a volcano forms a rough circle, but often it's edges are scallop-shaped because volcanos form from many lava flows over a long time. Depending on the angle of the Sun, volcanos will cast a shadow on the surface of the planet beyond the volcano. • Craters are holes, or depressions, in the surface. They often have a very sharp, circular rim. The rim may be raised a little above the surface, and it is surrounded by material that was thrown out of the crater when the impactor hit.

  • Mars: an Introduction to Its Interior, Surface and Atmosphere
    MARS: AN INTRODUCTION TO ITS INTERIOR, SURFACE AND ATMOSPHERE Our knowledge of Mars has changed dramatically in the past 40 years due to the wealth of information provided by Earth-based and orbiting telescopes, and spacecraft investiga- tions. Recent observations suggest that water has played a major role in the climatic and geologic history of the planet. This book covers our current understanding of the planet’s formation, geology, atmosphere, interior, surface properties, and potential for life. This interdisciplinary text encompasses the fields of geology, chemistry, atmospheric sciences, geophysics, and astronomy. Each chapter introduces the necessary background information to help the non-specialist understand the topics explored. It includes results from missions through 2006, including the latest insights from Mars Express and the Mars Exploration Rovers. Containing the most up-to-date information on Mars, this book is an important reference for graduate students and researchers. Nadine Barlow is Associate Professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at Northern Arizona University. Her research focuses on Martian impact craters and what they can tell us about the distribution of subsurface water and ice reservoirs.
