When astronauts land near the moon's south pole as part of NASA's Artemis program, they likely will find themselves in an unexpected treasure trove of clues that could help scientists better understand how Earth's only natural satellite came to be. news.arizona.edu/news/moons-ā¦

We have a ride to the Moon! Exciting news for Lunar-VISE!!! š@FireflyAerospace has been selected as the official lander and rover provider that will take us to the lunar surface in 2028!
#LunarVISE #fireflyaerospace #ForwardtotheMoon
This team is unstoppable! Firefly was awarded another NASA CLPS task order for a third lunar mission in 2028. This time we'll utilize our Blue Ghost lander, Elytra Dark orbital vehicle, and a rover to investigate the unexplored Gruithuisen Domes. fireflyspace.com/news/fireflā¦

@uazgeos PhD candidate Arkadeep Roy (@deep_magma) published a 'cool' EGU blog on his research about how 'hot' the Moon can get. Check it out!

ā” Power move: @EuropaClipper's solar arrays flanking the body of the spacecraft have fully unfolded. This means that the spacecraft now has a reliable source of power for the rest of its journey to Jupiter and tour of the Jovian system! go.nasa.gov/4eHSbcn

Our latest work, published in the Journal of Geophysical Research - Planets, that documents the Wolf crater complex on the Moon as a silicic volcanic caldera.

New paper out with @DrRockChef and Mihai Ducea! We conducted partial melting experiments on hydrous arclogite and find that these rocks are possible sources of alkaline-silicate magmas: sciencedirect.com/science/arā¦

Great to see SLI. We found SLI during partial melting of urKREEP in a preliminary study by @deep_magma . Definitely a way to form high Si magmas.
Arkadeep Roy retweeted
urKREEP is a hypothetical component from the last dregs of lunar magma ocean crystallization but never found as a rock type. Ever wonder what it might be? with @charlier_b, @OlivierNamur, and coauthors, here is what we found in our new EPSL paper: 1/8

(1/2) Thrilled to share that Iāve received the #FINESST (Future Investigators in NASA Earth and Space Science and Technology) award to advance my research on the petrogenesis of enigmatic silicic magmas on the Moon, like the Gruithuisen domes. ššš
(2/2) The Gruithuisen domes will be explored by NASAās @Lunar_VISE mission in 2026! Profound admiration and deep gratitude to my mentors and collaborators @DrRockChef @jessrocks88 @KerriDHanna Pranabendu Moitra
