JAN RAACK: Of course, yes. So I joined the online chat a couple of minutes. KAREN FOLEY: I hear you've doing very well. JAN RAACK: Yeah, it was my first time-- KAREN FOLEY: Bringing some sense to the conversation, I hear. JAN RAACK: A little bit of science, yes, but not so much. Yes. KAREN FOLEY: No, that's brilliant. No, thank you. What's it like then for you? You're an academic at the Open University. You've been here not since very long. So you started here in March so it's all been quite new. What's it been like talking with-- and we've got a lot of science students out there. What's it been like as an academic then talking to everybody in this sort of environment? How have you found it? JAN RAACK: A little bit weird, to be honest, because I was a student a couple of years ago, too. And for me, it's a step further from students to ask questions-- to answer questions. So for me, it's really new and I am excited with it, really, and I enjoyed it. Yes. KAREN FOLEY: Excellent. You're now doing a lot of research. So you were from Germany and you've now come to the Open University here in sunny Milton Keynes. JAN RAACK: Sunny, yes. KAREN FOLEY: Well, not really, is it? We won't lie.

  • Magnitude Scales for Marsquakes
    Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, Vol. XX, No. XX, pp. –, – 2018, doi: 10.1785/0120180037 Ⓔ Magnitude Scales for Marsquakes by Maren Böse,* Domenico Giardini, Simon Stähler, Savas Ceylan, John Francis Clinton, Martin van Driel, Amir Khan, Fabian Euchner, Philippe Lognonné, and William Bruce Banerdt Abstract In anticipation of the upcoming 2018 InSight (Interior exploration using Seismic Investigations, Geodesy and Heat Transport) Discovery mission to Mars, we calibrate magnitude scales for marsquakes that incorporate state-of-the-art knowledge on Mars interior structure and the expected ambient and instrumental noise. We re- gress magnitude determinations of 2600 randomly distributed marsquakes, simulated with a spectral element method for 13 published 1D structural models of Mars’ interior. The continuous seismic data from InSight will be returned at 2 samples per second. To account for this limited bandwidth as well as for the expected noise conditions on Mars, we define and calibrate six magnitude scales: (1) local Mars mag- MMa nitude L at a period of 3 s for marsquakes at distances of up to 10°; (2) P-wave mMa mMa magnitude b ; (3) S-wave magnitude bS each defined at a period of 3 s and cali- MMa brated for distances from 5° to 100°; (4) surface-wave magnitude s defined at a MMa MMa period of 20 s, as well as (5) moment magnitudes FB ; and (6) F computed from the low-frequency (10–100 s) plateau of the displacement spectrum for either body waves or body and surface waves, respectively; we calibrate scales (4)–(6) for dis- tances from 5° to 180°.

It is expected to land on the Red Planet on Nov. 26, 2018. InSight is a mission to Mars, but it is more than a Mars mission. It will help scientists understand the formation and early evolution of all rocky planets, including Earth. A technology demonstration called Mars Cube One (MarCO) will share the launch with InSight and fly separately to Mars. Six Ways InSight Is Different NASA has a long and successful track record at Mars. Since 1965, it has flown by, orbited, landed and roved across the surface of the Red Planet. None of that has been easy. Only about 40 percent of the missions ever sent to Mars by any space agency have been successful. The planet’s thin atmosphere makes landing a challenge; its extreme temperature swings make it difficult to operate on the surface. But if a spacecraft survives the trip, there’s a bounty of science to be collected.
