On the cover: “Somewhere, Sometime on Mars” Acrylic painting by William K. Hartmann, co-founder and Senior Scientist Emeritus at the Planetary Science Institute.

This painting was made at Arches National Park, transforming a view of Window Arch into a future scene by deleting vegetation, altering sky color, and adding a foreground typical of newly formed impacts being discovered on Mars.

Formation of arches at the National Park involved the dissolving of ancient soluble deposits in an ancient inland sea, and it seems plausible that similar processes could have happened in ancient, lake-filled craters on Mars.

PSI was honored this year by the generous donation of $40,000 to the Pierazzo Memorial Fund by Senior Scientist Michelle Thomsen. This fund supports the Pierazzo International Student Travel Awards, named in honor our late Senior Scientist Betty Pierazzo. They provide $2,000 to a graduate student at a U.S. institution to travel to a planetary-related meeting outside of the U.S., and another $2,000 to a graduate student at a non-U.S. institution to travel to a planetary- related meeting within the U.S. Dr. Thomsen’s gift now makes these awards self-sustainable and a permanent part of what PSI does as electrical grids.

5 NASA’S JUNO MISSION LEARNING MORE ABOUT JUPITER and ITS MOONS

PSI scientists working on NASA’s Juno mission continue to learn more about Jupiter and its moons.

Large cyclones have been discovered clustered around Jupiter’s poles by NASA’s Juno spacecraft. The circumpolar cyclones were discovered on Juno’s first pass over Jupiter’s poles, and subsequent data has revealed how remarkably stable they are. The circumpolar cyclones ring a single cyclone at each pole.

Using visible images from NASA’s JunoCam camera headed by PSI Senior Scientist Candice Hansen, and infrared images obtained by the spacecraft’s Jovian Infrared Auroral Mapper (JIRAM), researchers found eight circumpolar cyclones arranged around a single northern polar cyclone and five circumpolar cyclones encircling a southern polar cyclone.

“Jupiter’s circumpolar cyclones are unique; the polar regions are unlike any of the other gas giants,” said Hansen, JunoCam instrument lead and Juno Co-Investigator. “The circumpolar cyclones in the north are as big as the continental United States. The cyclones in the south are even larger.

“And they are surprisingly stable. They are identifiable from one close pass to the next, with a 53-day separation, and they are in a very stable configuration – no new ones have spun up, no old ones have dissipated,” she said.

Wind speeds measured 580 miles from the center of these giant storms range from 100 mph to 220 mph, she said.

The study of two potential plume sites on Jupiter’s moon Europa has shown a lack of expected hotspot signatures, unlike where plumes have a very clear and obvious temperature signature, research by PSI Senior Scientist Julie Rathbun shows.

“We searched through the available Galileo thermal data at the locations proposed as the sites of potential plumes. Reanalysis of temperature data from the Galileo mission does not show anything special in the locations where plumes have possibly been observed. There are no hotspot signatures at either of the sites,” Rathbun said. “This is surprising because the Enceladus plumes have a clear thermal signature at their site of origin, so this suggests that either the Europa plumes are very different, or the plumes are only occasional, or that they don’t exist, or that their thermal THIS PAGE: Europa Plume signature is too small to have been detected by current data.” This is an artist’s concept of a plume of water vapor thought to be ejected off the frigid, icy Plumes are jets of gas that are sent upward from a planet’s surface, similar to Old surface of the Jovian moon Europa.

6 source is needed. Generally, that energy source will also heat the surface around the plume source, like we see in Yellowstone with hotspots at the geysers and hot springs nearby. This is also what is seen on Enceladus, a hot region where the plumes erupt from Enceladus’ surface. The hot spots at Yellowstone and Enceladus are unmistakable and readily observed. The lack of a hotspot at Europa ABOVE LEFT: EUROPA SURFACE SWATH suggests the plumes there are very different, if they exist at all. This enhanced-color view shows a 350- by 750-kilometer swath Rathbun’s findings, titled “A closer look at Galileo thermal data from across the surface of Jupiter’s moon Europa.

Salty water is likely the major component of cryolavas on in the crust. This is what was used to find the equatorial density Ceres. Ceres offers the best opportunity to test the significance of anomaly. Statistical analysis of topography was used for ridge cryovolcanism on outer Solar System bodies, compared to regular analysis and the paleo-pole. And for matching the crustal fractures, volcanism on terrestrial planets like Earth. a well-proven method by Isamu Matsuyama and Francis Nimmo was used. “There was a great deal of interest in searching for cryovolcanoes on Ceres as soon as Dawn arrived there, because thermal models “The most surprising aspect of this paper is to me the observation had predicted they might exist. was a great candidate that the pole of Ceres must have followed an indirect path to its right away.

12 PSI’s Education and Public Outreach Has Global Reach

PSI supports many science education and “Citizen Science” projects that have a national and international reach. Currently, our scientists, education specialists, staff, and docents are based in 23 states, the District of Columbia, and several international locations. In 2018 we announced that all funding from the “Friends of PSI” EPO AT SPACE CENTER HOUSTON program (see www.psi/support/friends for more info) will support Georgiana Kramer accompanied members of the Boys and Girls Club the wide variety of Education and Public Outreach (EPO) initiatives of Greater Houston on a trip to Space Center Houston, the official visitor center of NASA Johnson Space Center, where she discussed the that our scientists and educators undertake in their own communities Moon for their “Living on the Moon” art project. through events, workshops, and science fairs. We are always seeking new ways to demonstrate our commitment to reaching and inspiring Don Davis, Maya Bakerman, Connor McNally, Joe Spitale, Bea the next generation of scientists. Mueller and Mike Drum. The diversity of programs led by our scientists ranges from participation in events with an epic global reach such as the Thousands of Family SciFest 2018 Attendees Enjoy STEM-Based Activities International Observe the Moon Night to chatting about planetary PSI offered kids of all ages a chance to learn about meteorites and science and ongoing space missions with the local shoppers at a use an infrared (IR) camera at the Seventh Annual Family SciFest event farmer’s market in Colorado. held at Children’s Museum Tucson. The event attracted 2,264 people Some of the past year’s EPO highlighs included: and featured hands-on activities presented by 39 exhibitors. PSI Active at International Observe the Moon Night Events Sanlyn Buxner and Maya Bakerman were kept busy throughout the event by a constant stream of kids and parents visiting PSI’s Andrea led NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) display table. outreach team in the most popular International Observe the Moon Night (InOMN) to date with more than 1,000 registered events and PSI Holds Teacher Lunar Workshop an estimated 160,000 participants in 75 countries around the globe. Three PSI educators participated in the Arizona Science Teacher Georgiana Kramer gave an International Observe the Moon Association’s “Terra Luna” event held at the Franklin Phonetic Skype presentation with Q&A with a group at The Space Station School in Prescott, Ariz. Museum in Novato, California. She also accompanied members of Maya Bakerman, Sanlyn Buxner and Larry Lebofsky held a the Boys and Girls Club of Greater Houston on a trip to Space Center Moon-focused workshop for teachers that included meteorite kits, Houston, the official visitor center of NASA Johnson Space Center, moon mapping, Earth-Moon comparisons, Moon phase activities, where she discussed the Moon for their “Living on the Moon” cratering activities and studying historic images from NASA’s Lunar art project.

PSI’s exhibit, held in the event’s Science City area, but they also encourage their peers at other organizations to conduct included hands-on activities featuring samples of three different EPO activities. For example, Jennifer Grier presented “Understanding types of meteorites – stony, iron, and stony-iron, as well as many the Needs of Space Scientists in Education, Public Engagement, different types of impact rocks which were created when meteorites and Communications: Implications for Practice” at the Lunar and impacted with Earth. Planetary Science Conference held in March. Larry Lebofsky scheduled volunteers for the event, and PSI scientists serve as judges in science fairs such as the Southern participants included Thea Cañizo, Stephen Ferris, Vivian Morrison, Arizona Research, Science, and Engineering Foundation (SARSEF) and PSI contributes prizes to the winners. 13 PSI Fundraising and Development

PSI is a nonprofit research organization and it relies on NASA contracts for the majority of its funding. Because the NASA budget is vulnerable to budget cuts (and, unfortunately, government shutdowns as was witnessed this year), it is necessary for PSI to seek private sector donations to augment the funding that it receives from NASA. To sustain the Institute’s nationwide Education and Public Outreach (EPO) efforts we reach out to businesses and individuals (both local and national) to support our activities through their tax-deductible contributions. Throughout the year, PSI conducts a few different fundraising events and campaigns that include: ANNUAL DINNER Annual Dinner Top: Featured speaker Pamela Melroy, PSI Board of Trustees Chair Tim The PSI Annual Fundraising Dinner is the organization’s Hunter and Benjamin Smith chat prior to the Annual Fundraising Dinner. flagship event.

She is the recipient of numerous awards and PSI scientists and educators log many hours in their respective special honors including the NASA Distinguished Service Medal, the communities, volunteering their time at events such as Science Fairs, NASA Outstanding Leadership Medal, and the Air Force Meritorious Astronomy Nights, and other STEM-related activities. These important Service Medal, among others. outreach activities can include the use of one of the Institute’s custom The event’s table sponsors included PSI Board members, PSI Rock/Meteor Kits for “hands on” demonstrations. The funding from staff members, and local businesses that generously support the the “Friends” program enables PSI to ship these kits and to develop Institute’s work. appropriate collateral materials to enhance the presentations. One of the evening’s fun highlights was the raffle prize drawing Betty Pierazzo Fund that included dozens of rare and unique items such as a scale model of Vesta (modeled in chocolate!), NASA collectibles, books, spa Created to honor the late Elizabeth Pierazzo, a PSI Senior Scientist, treatments, jewelry, artwork, and a vacation weekend. this fund assists early-career scientists.
