The Arctic landscape has experienced many dramatic forms of change due to anthropogenic warming. Large crater‐like forms surrounded by fragmented blocks scattered outward to …
The Selk crater region is the future landing site of NASA's Dragonfly mission to Titan. The region was imaged by the Cassini RADAR at incidence angles from 5 to 72 and at various …
We use hyperspectral-imaging observations from the Visual and Infrared Mapping Spectrometer (VIMS) to identify and explain processes of Titan's equator through the …

We mapped the Soi crater region at 1: 800,000 scale and produced a geomorphological map using methodology presented by Malaska, Lopes, Williams, et al.(2016), https://doi …
NASA's “big questions” that currently motivate planetary exploration include how the universe works, how our solar system evolved, what characteristics lead to life, and whether …
Icy worlds are the moons and small planets of the solar system which are primarily composed of volatile material, such as water, ammonia, and methane. They are geologically …
