The Venus Exploration Analysis Group (VEXAG), like the rest of the NASA AGs is still currently on pause, and is therefore unlikely to be able to hold its planned Town Hall at #LPSC2025. However, there WILL be an independent non-AG Venus Exploration Community Interest Meeting. March 12, 2025 12:00 CT

Okay I am trying to run wget via Windows (v1.21.4) and am running into security protocols. Husband used his work laptop and could do it. Is there an updated version I'm missing? Trying to get ready for #LPSC2025
Side note: argh I miss the giant single files I can download and go through argh

Pamerleau: We model under what physical parameters a primordial, undifferentiated carapace on Callisto would lead to deformation observable by spacecraft, thereby potentially providing a test of Callisto’s interior structure. #LPSC2025

Parekh: In Agenor Linea, pit chains IDed are distributed n a smooth northern swath and present on a boundary between central and southern swath. Most parallel to a prominent, thick, bright central swath

Damn it Dan, with everything going on, you may have jinxed it. >.<

Time for questions!
Timms - that particular sample doesn't look like a growth twin. Also we were careful regarding how interacted with the sample.

Trevor Austin: SLS is inherently unsafe. Are we lying about our ability to propel astronauts safely into space?
Jake: SLS is the best rocket to get people into space. I don't believe we're being dishonest about safety.

Kareta: We present telescopic observations of the very near-Earth asteroid 2024 PT5 which show it to reflect light very similarly to some returned lunar samples and interpret PT5 as being an ejected boulder from the the Moon on this and dynamical grounds. #LPSC2025

So I did want to address this point. I definitely have no condemnation for the presenters. They did the best they could in a crappy situation in which they have no control.

I wasn’t in the room (stayed home for reasons, incl. $$$ and TX). I feel the career Civil Servants did the best they could within the bounds set for them. I would have set different bounds, but that’s one of the reasons I chose to leave Civil Service during this regime’s first administration.

I am going to present at the Tuesday poster evening! It will be my first conference presentation as a Postdoc. #LPSC2025
Come and talk about pit crater chains and structures on various planetary bodies ☄️🌑

Woah, Noam Izenberg showing a really neat flyby video of Venus with Parker Solar Probe's WISPR camera. Camera's bandpass is *just* sensitive to a surface emission window, but overlaps with oxygen airglow - needs processing to see the surface. #LPSC2025

Früh: Suggest that craters 10 km and larger could have excavated SPA material, so material should be all over the Artemis III potential landing sites. #LPSC2025

Cleveland: Belet has higher radar backscatter than Namib when normalized. Belet's radar return is highly variable. Namib data presents a more uniform and predictable surface. Radar wavelength plays a crucial role in how dunes appear.

Starting out #LPSC2025 with some blues at the Bayou Blues Festival at the Houston Botanic Garden!
Here’s a blast of blues from the Soul Supporters, with a very resonant message in these times we find ourselves in.
