Thrilled to share a new paper in Nature Communications, led by @cryoelo.bsky.social at JPL!
This advances how we might look for recent eruptions of water with the #Europa Clipper mission. This work looks at the physics of how deep water can leave surface traces of heat, chemistry, and geology.

Identifying signatures of past and present cryovolcanism on Europa - Nature Communications
A new computer simulation will elucidate whether water is transported through the icy shell of Jupiter’s moon Europa, and where it is sourced from, using multiple surface and interior data from upcomi...

One of NASA’s core principals is/was inclusion—although you wouldn’t be able to figure that out now because they are systematically shutting down websites and deleting entire public reports.
Here's an e-mail that just went out to NASA agency wide. 🔭

Europa > Ganymede. I say that as a co-author of Springer's upcoming Ganymede book chapter m: Gabymede's Geology. Why? You can rely through the ice shell of Europa to explore its much more habitable ocean.

I spoke to a talented junior scientist who just got a good faculty job offer in the US and they told me “well I wouldn’t move to 1930s Germany either” so that’s how that’s going

This is an excellent and fair ruling. When you consider the multiple negative effects of continuing to burn fossil fuels this is a fair ruling. 1/3 www.thecooldown.com/green-busine...
