🚨New Views of the Moon II is available! Grateful to have contributed to a few chapters bc the previous vol was a huge educational resource for me. Literally tore through this book in grad school & can only hope for the same fate to vol 89 😅📕📗
What’s the status of your 60?!
ICYMI 👀🌒🔃 overturn of late stage lunar magma ocean cumulates triggers a rapid & short-lived episode of lower mantle melting that explains the key volume, geochronological, & spatial characteristics of the earliest secondary crust on the Moon (Mg-suite). nature.com/articles/s41467-0…
ICYMI: multiple postdoc opportunities with the LunaSCOPE NASA SSERVI Team in topics of magma oceans, magnetism, volcanism + tectonism, volatiles, regolith + impacts, & Earth-Moon orbital, stress, + tidal evolution.
Initial review of apps on Aug. 1!

Working on some rare lunar dunite recovered during the Apollo 17 mission at Station 2, Boulder 3 🔬🩶
For further perspective: images of Boulder 3 taken by Commander Gene Cernan, and one of the Earth “just to make sure” from Station 2 (Boulder 2 in foreground).

On the e-probe this week looking at some rare & ultra-fresh olivine from the Benfontein kimberlite sill complex (often kimberlite olivine succumbs to late-stage serpentinisation). Dark xenocrystic core mantled by growth zones of the crystallized proto-kimberlite melt 👌🏼
☄️New paper alert☄️ & my first adventure in reconstructing the ureilite parent body. Check out Goodrich et al. for more on…
