The Scientist 6[4]:, Feb. 17, 1992 Hot Papers Astrogeology By None R.E. Arvidson, R.E. Grimm, R.J. Phillips, G.G. Schaber, E.M. Shoemaker, "On the nature and rate of resurfacing of Venus," Geophysical Research Letters, 17:1385-88, 1990. Raymond E. Arvidson (Washington University, St. Louis): "The size-frequency distribution, abundance, and locations of impact craters provide key pieces of information for understanding how planets are resurfaced. "Based on the average size frequency distribution, we know that volcanism and tectonism have removed Venusian craters that are older than several hundred million years of age. But does this result mean that resurfacing effectively stopped then? "We think not. Rather, we presented a hypothesis that Venus has ongoing volcanic and tectonic activity that occurs randomly in space and time. Areas recently affected should be devoid of craters, whereas regions that have been quiescent for a long time should have an excess of craters, relative to the global average. "This work has been verified by analyses of Magellan radar images. Results of these analyses imply that Earth's sister planet, in contrast to Mercury, Earth's moon, or Mars, is still internally active."

Class website: http://web.pdx.edu/~ruzickaa/G456 Course Description: Geology and astronomy are combined to better understand the evolution of the solar system. Comparative geologic evolution of the planets, moons, and smaller bodies in the solar system is emphasized. Other topics include impact cratering as a geologic process, celestial mechanics, the formation of stars and planetary systems, the origin of the solar system, planetary evolution, and meteorites. The laboratory component of the course will give students experience with making observations and measurements that illustrate concepts discussed in lecture.

Workplace Environments USGS/GSA SHOEMAKER ASTROGEOLOGY FACILITY AND CAMPUS MASTER PLAN Flagstaff, Arizona Developed by the City of Flagstaff and situated at the base of Mount Eldon in the San Francisco mountain range, this new facility for the United States Astrogeological division is the first new building constructed from a campus master plan prepared by the firm that illustrates replacement of obsolete structures, improvements to vehicular circulation and other enhancements to the campus. The 27,000 sf facility, completed in 2002, houses scientists and staff working on space program development projects and synthesizing and charting data from instruments in space, including the Mars Rover project. Many sustainable design principles were applied to the building, whose forms, materials, and palette are compatible with its extraordinary natural setting. Energy efficient building systems and the strategic use of passive and active solar radiation techniques will reduce energy consumption and consequently influence the building’s overall life cycle costs. Durable and economical exterior materials, including masonry and standing seam metal siding, lend to the integration of the structure into the landscape. Interior finishes were specified using green design principles such as use of materials indigenous to the region, products which contain recycled content and materials that contribute to good indoor air quality standards.

News Center Home A community forum for the discussion of progressive ideas Volume 1, Number 5 December 2000 Free Donations appreciated Is this building history? Group says USGS Astrogeology building is historic. USGS says it's in the way. By Dan Frazier, Tea Party Editor eology. In 1964, the U.S. Geological Survey began construction of one of the world's first buildings devoted to Astrogeology. The new 14,000-square-foot building atop McMillan Mesa was to be used to create maps of the moon in advance of a manned lunar landing. An ambitious young Astrogeologist, Eugene Shoemaker, had helped to select the site for the building and wielded the ground-breaking shovel. The north side of Building One, meant to be the building’s front, is rarely seen these days except by those on a foot trail near Buffalo Park. The trail was once Cedar Avenue, until Cedar was rerouted in the 1980's.

News Center Home A community forum for the discussion of progressive ideas Volume 1, Number 5 December 2000 Free Donations appreciated Eugene Shoemaker By Dan Frazier, Tea Party Editor Eugene Shoemaker was just 34 when he broke ground on Building One. At the time, he was the chief of the USGS Branch of Astrogeology. He would go on to a celebrated career, helping to firmly establish the new science of Astrogeology. Though he maintained an office in Building One throughout much of his career, he spent much of his time doing Astrogeology work at various field locations on the Colorado Plateau, including Meteor Crater. He helped to establish conclusively that Meteor Crater was the result of a meteor impact. He worked extensively with the Apollo program, helping to train astronauts in the use of geologic tools to be used on the moon. For three years beginning in 1969, he lived in Los Angeles, where he chaired the Geology Department at the California Institute of Technology. Later in his career, he returned to Flagstaff, though he frequently traveled to California's Palomar observatory and other scientific centers around the world. Working with his wife, Carolyn, he helped to discover 32 comets, a record-setting accomplishment. He is best known for helping to discover Shoemaker-Levy 9, which plunged into Jupiter in 1994. Shoemaker died in 1997, while traveling in Australia. In honor of Shoemaker's achievements, a vial carrying an ounce of his ashes was sent to the moon aboard the Lunar Prospector in 1999. The highlights of Shoemaker's career are recounted in Shoemaker the Man who Made an Impact by David H. Levy.

27 September 2001 Nature Astrogeology: The face of Eros Cover photo: NASA NASA's NEAR-Shoemaker spacecraft landed on the asteroid 433 Eros, 145 million miles from Earth, on 12 February this year. During the final descent 70 high-resolution images of the asteroid's surface were obtained (see movie on http://near.jhuapl.edu/NEAR ), revealing the surface in remarkable detail. These images have now been analysed and three papers in this issue report the results. Parts of the asteroid's surface are covered with loose debris, possibly originating from a relatively young 7.6-km-diameter impact crater, and other areas are covered with distinctive smooth dusty surfaces.
