  • Can't Go Home by Noelle Adams / Pfangirl PART 1
    Can't go home By Noelle Adams / pfangirl PART 1 - SUFFOCATED A caged lioness. That's what Lara reminded Sam of now. Every time she looked at her best friend, the American thought of the big cat she'd seen in a German zoo during her globe- trotting childhood. It wouldn't lie still. It was pure feral energy, striding back and forth in its enclosure, muscles rippling beneath its pelt. Lara was the same. Lithe grace and power in human form, always moving, always intensely focused on some task or thing. Almost permanently scowling. Sam had always wondered which of her parents Lara inherited her effortless physicality from. Four years of knowing Lara, and Sam still wasn't sure. There were no photos for her to consult. The young archaeologist hardly spoke about her vanished mother and father. She avoided talking about them; evidently running from their memory like she ran from what had happened on Yamatai. In the one and a half months since the shipwreck – well, at least since she was released from hospital – Lara had been seized by a frantic, feverish vigour. They had travelled from Osaka to the UK, where Lara had spent a single day at her family's estate, ransacking her father's study. From there they headed to New York. This put Lara closer to her next intended stop – Roanoke Island. Although the city was a good base for Lara to work from while she planned her next expedition, there was a second, more distasteful reason for the archaeologist to be there: an exclusive television interview.

  • 18Th EANA Conference European Astrobiology Network Association
    18th EANA Conference European Astrobiology Network Association Abstract book 24-28 September 2018 Freie Universität Berlin, Germany Sponsors: Detectability of biosignatures in martian sedimentary systems A. H. Stevens1, A. McDonald2, and C. S. Cockell1 (1) UK Centre for Astrobiology, University of Edinburgh, UK ([email protected]) (2) Bioimaging Facility, School of Engineering, University of Edinburgh, UK Presentation: Tuesday 12:45-13:00 Session: Traces of life, biosignatures, life detection Abstract: Some of the most promising potential sampling sites for astrobiology are the numerous sedimentary areas on Mars such as those explored by MSL. As sedimentary systems have a high relative likelihood to have been habitable in the past and are known on Earth to preserve biosignatures well, the remains of martian sedimentary systems are an attractive target for exploration, for example by sample return caching rovers [1]. To learn how best to look for evidence of life in these environments, we must carefully understand their context. While recent measurements have raised the upper limit for organic carbon measured in martian sediments [2], our exploration to date shows no evidence for a terrestrial-like biosphere on Mars. We used an analogue of a martian mudstone (Y-Mars[3]) to investigate how best to look for biosignatures in martian sedimentary environments. The mudstone was inoculated with a relevant microbial community and cultured over several months under martian conditions to select for the most Mars-relevant microbes. We sequenced the microbial community over a number of transfers to try and understand what types microbes might be expected to exist in these environments and assess whether they might leave behind any specific biosignatures.

  • The Martian by Andy Weir
    The Martian by Andy Weir Summary Spoiler Alert: The following summary and discussion questions reveal plot information that some readers may prefer to encounter as surprises. The Martian takes place in a near-future setting, and unfolds in fragmentary diary entries and third- person accounts. Ares III, the latest manned shuttle mission to Mars, lands with plans to remain on the planet's surface for several weeks. A freak, high-velocity dust storm strikes; mission engineer Mark Watney is impaled by flying debris and presumed dead after his bio-suit stops reporting his vitals. Commander Michelle Lewis orders the remaining crew to evacuate. They flee, mourning Mark's death during the long voyage back to Earth. In reality, Mark is injured but alive. He regains consciousness to find himself utterly alone in the inhospitable alien landscape. The only hope of rescue (the next manned mission) is four long years away -- and he has supplies for, at most, only a few weeks. Fortified by his own wickedly blunt sense of humor -- and completely confident in his crewmates' loyalty and skill -- Mark painstakingly improvises ways of providing himself with water, heat, and shelter. He even establishes a mini-potato farm in his biosphere to extend his scant food supplies. None of it is easy, however: any small incident (torn fabric around an airlock) can have disastrous consequences (the collapse of his shelter -- and destruction of his garden). Although often amused by the realization that he is the first to do everything on Mars, he is also dismayed by the depth of his isolation as the weeks stretch into months.

We derive linear radii, effective temperatures, and absolute luminosities of the stars using Hipparcos parallaxes and measured bolometric fluxes. The new data are combined with previously published values to create an Angular Diameter Anthology of measured angular diameters to main-sequence stars (luminosity classes V and IV).

Received 2009 July 27; in original form 2009 March 31 ABSTRACT Debris discs – analogous to the Asteroid and Kuiper-Edgeworth belts in the Solar system – have so far mostly been identified and studied in thermal emission shortward of 100 µm. The Herschel space observatory and the SCUBA-2 camera on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope will allow efficient photometric surveying at 70 to 850 µm, which allow for the detection of cooler discs not yet discovered, and the measurement of disc masses and temperatures when combined with shorter wavelength photometry. The SCUBA-2 Unbiased Nearby Stars (SUNS) survey and the DEBRIS Herschel Open Time Key Project are complimentary legacy surveys observing samples of ∼500 nearby stellar systems. To maximise the legacy value of these surveys, great care has gone into the target selection process. This paper describes the target selection process and presents the target lists of these two surveys.

  • Martian Rock Types Analysis of Surface Composition
    Martian rock types Analysis of surface composition • Most of the knowledge from the surface compostion of Mars comes from: • Orbital spacecraft’s spectroscopic data • Analysis by rovers on the surface • Analysis of meteroites Southern Highlands • Mainly Basalts – Consists primarily of Olivine, Feldspars and Pyroxenes Northern Lowlands • Mainly Andesite – More evolved forms of magma – Highly volatile – Constitutes the majority of the crust Intermediate Felsic Types • High Silica Rocks • Exposed on the surface near Syrtis Major • Uncommon but include: • Dacites and Granitoids • Suggest diverse crustal composition Sedimentary Rocks • Widespread on the surface • Makes up the majority of the Northern lowlands deposists – May have formed from sea/lake deposits – Some show cross‐bedding in their layers – Hold the best chance to find fossilized life Carbonate Rocks • Formed through hydrothermal precipitation Tracks from rover unveil different soil types • Most soil consists of finely ground basaltic rock fragments • Contains iron oxide which gives Mars its red color • Also contains large amounts of sulfur and chlorine Tracks from rover unveil different soil types • Light colored soil is silica rich • High concentrations suggest water must have been involved to help concentrate the silica Blueberries • Iron rich spherules Meteorites on Mars What is a Martian meteorite? • Martian meteorites are achondritic meteorites with strong linear correlations of gases in the Martian atmosphere. Therefore, the gas trapped in each meteorite matches those that the Viking Lander found in Mar’s atmosphere. The graph below explains this correlation. • Image: http://www.imca.cc/mars/martian‐meteorites.htm Types of Martian Meteorites • 34 meteorites have been found that are Martian and they can be separated into 4 major categories with sub‐categories.
