The Magellan Spacecraft at Venus by Andrew Fraknoi, Astronomical Society of the Pacific
www.astrosociety.org/uitc No. 18 - Fall 1991 © 1991, Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 390 Ashton Avenue, San Francisco, CA 94112. The Magellan Spacecraft at Venus by Andrew Fraknoi, Astronomical Society of the Pacific "Having finally penetrated below the clouds of Venus, we find its surface to be naked [not hidden], revealing the history of hundreds of millions of years of geological activity. Venus is a geologist's dream planet.'' —Astronomer David Morrison This fall, the brightest star-like object you can see in the eastern skies before dawn isn't a star at all — it's Venus, the second closest planet to the Sun. Because Venus is so similar in diameter and mass to our world, and also has a gaseous atmosphere, it has been called the Earth's "sister planet''. Many years ago, scientists expected its surface, which is perpetually hidden beneath a thick cloud layer, to look like Earth's as well. Earlier this century, some people even imagined that Venus was a hot, humid, swampy world populated by prehistoric creatures! But we now know Venus is very, very different. New radar images of Venus, just returned from NASA's Magellan spacecraft orbiting the planet, have provided astronomers the clearest view ever of its surface, revealing unique geological features, meteor impact craters, and evidence of volcanic eruptions different from any others found in the solar system. This issue of The Universe in the Classroom is devoted to what Magellan is teaching us today about our nearest neighbor, Venus. Where is Venus, and what is it like? Spacecraft exploration of Venus's surface Magellan — a "recycled'' spacecraft How does Magellan take pictures through the clouds? What has Magellan revealed about Venus? How does Venus' surface compare with Earth's? What is the next step in Magellan's mission? If Venus is such an uninviting place, why are we interested in it? Reading List Why is it so hot on Venus? Where is Venus, and what is it like? Venus orbits the Sun in a nearly circular path between Mercury and the Earth, about 3/4 as far from our star as the Earth is. -

208 OREGON WILD Afterword JIM CALLAHAN One final paragraph of advice: do not burn yourselves out. Be as I am — a reluctant enthusiast.... a part-time crusader, a half-hearted fanatic. Save the other half of your- selves and your lives for pleasure and adventure. It is not enough to fight for the land; it is even more important to enjoy it. While you can. While it is still here. So get out there and hunt and fish and mess around with your friends, ramble out yonder and explore the forests, climb the mountains, bag the peaks, run the rivers, breathe deep of that yet sweet and lucid air, sit quietly for awhile and contemplate the precious still- ness, the lovely mysterious and awesome space. Enjoy yourselves, keep your brain in your head and your head firmly attached to the body, the body active and alive and I promise you this much: I promise you this one sweet victory over our enemies, over those desk-bound men with their hearts in a safe-deposit box and their eyes hypnotized by desk calculators. I promise you this: you will outlive the bastards. —Edward Abbey1 Edward Abbey. Ed, take it from another Ed, not only can wilderness lovers outlive wilderness opponents, we can also defeat them.

Chintro Malheur WQ Study Introduction
Hydrology and Water Quality at Malheur National Wildlife Refuge Tim Mayer, Rick Roy, Tyler Hallock, Kenny Janssen U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service INTRODUCTION Malheur National Wildlife Refuge (NWR) is located in Harney Basin in southeastern Oregon (Figure 1). The refuge encompasses 187,000 acres of open water, wetlands, springs, riparian areas, irrigated meadows and grain fields, and uplands. The original executive order in 1908 protected Harney, Mud, and Malheur Lakes. The refuge was expanded to include the Blitzen Valley in 1935 and the Double-O Unit in 1941. The refuge serves as a major feeding, resting, and nesting area for migratory waterfowl, shorebirds, marsh birds, colonial nesting waterbirds, raptors, and passerine bird species. Water and marsh habitat management on the refuge benefit large numbers of breeding and migrating birds including ducks, geese, swans, colonial nesting species, and other marsh and shorebirds. The refuge also supports large numbers of greater sandhill cranes. The value of the habitat on the refuge is largely dependent on the availability and management of water resources. Much of the water management on the refuge occurs in the Blitzen Valley, where the infrastructure for water management exists. The Donner and Blitzen (Blitzen) River begins on Steens Mountain and flows north through the Blitzen Valley unit of the refuge and into Malheur Lake (Figure 2). A system of dikes, canals, drains, and water control structures was developed in the early 1900s to facilitate grazing and farming. Twenty miles of the river was channelized and straightened at the same time. The water distribution system still exists and is used by the refuge to manage water in the Blitzen Valley. -
The Earth-Based Radar Search for Volcanic Activity on Venus

Introduction: Venus is widely expected to have geometry comes from shifts in the latitude of the sub- ongoing volcanic activity based on its similar size to radar point, which spans the range from about 8o S Earth and likely heat budget. How lithospheric (2017) to 8o N (2015). Observations in 1988, 2012, and thickness and volcanic activity have varied over the 2020 share a similar sub-radar point latitude of ~3o S. history of the planet remains uncertain. While tessera Coverage of higher northern and southern latitudes may highlands locally represent a period of thinner be obtained during favorable conjunctions (Fig. 1), but lithosphere and strong deformation, there is no current the shift in incidence angle must be recognized in means to determine whether they formed synchronously analysis of surface features over time. The 2012 data on hemispheric scales. Understanding the degree to were collected in an Arecibo-GBT bistatic geometry which mantle plumes currently thin and uplift the crust that led to poorer isolation between the hemispheres. to create deformation and effusive eruptions will better inform our understanding of the “global” versus Searching for Change. Ideally, surface change “localized” timing of heat transport. Ground-based detection could be achieved by co-registering and radar mapping of one hemisphere of Venus over the past differencing any pair of radar maps.
