Now that I have a new home on solarsystem.social, here's a new #introduction!
I am a #planetary scientist working at the Institut de Physique du Globe de Paris (#IPGP) in France. My research uses the #gravity field, #topography, and #MagneticField of the planets to decipher their internal structure and geologic evolution. My favorite terrestrial body is the #Moon, but I also work with #Mercury, #Venus, and #Mars. Soon I will need to learn about #Psyche and the icy satellites of #Jupiter!

Zu viel für nicht biologische Quelle: Auf Mars gefundene Stoffe weisen auf Leben
Vor einem Jahr hat die NASA erklärt, dass ihr Mars-Rover Curiosity lange organische Verbindungen entdeckt hat. Deren Menge weist auf eine biologische Herkunft.
Schau mal, @silberspur 👇
Nachdem Musk schon X & Tesla sowie seinen Ruf mit Epstein - Mails sogar ggü. den MAGA - Trump - Trollen geschreddert hat, schwenkt er nun vom Mars zum Mond. Du hattest ja bereits 2024 das Scheitern seiner Terraforming - Transhumanismus - Ketaminträume thematisiert: #Musk #X #Tesla #Epstein #Trump #Mond #Mars #Terraforming #SpaceX https://scilogs.spektrum.de/natur-des-glaubens/gastblog-peter-gutsche-von-wuestenplaneten-terraforming-und-oekologie-als-wissenschaft-von-der-mitwelt-zukunftsvisionen-fuer-eine-lebenswerte-erde/
Kehrtwende von Elon Musk: SpaceX soll jetzt doch erst zum Mond – später zum Mars
Seit über zehn Jahren erzählt Elon Musk bei jeder Gelegenheit, dass er zum Mars will und der Mond ignoriert gehört. Jetzt wechselt er die Marschrichtung.

Galle: Happy Face Crater on #Mars
Mars' Galle crater, resembling a smiling, winking face, was captured by the Mars Global Surveyor. Formed billions of years ago by an #asteroid impact, it's a reminder of the craters dotting our Solar System's rocky bodies.

Anyone reading Kim Stanley Robinson's "Mars Trilogy" or any part of it quickly realizes that while the novels are full of technical details, there are very few maps and those that exist are very coarse.
Here are some maps I made while reading the books several years ago, showing cities, places and plot info. The background is a USGS Topographical Map from Wikipedia: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/48/USGS-PlanetMars-TopographicalMap.png
Corrections and new locations will be posted to this thread.
I'm more of a reader than a writer in 'Mastodon Space' but today I bring you something that those people I follow may not have heard of: what's likely to be the first attempt at a space suit, designed as early as 1936 in Spain. It was to be tested with a hot air balloon but unfortunately the whole thing had to be scrapped due to the Civil War. One piece of the original suit has now been found. In Spanish but Google Translate does the trick.

She was the first woman on Mars. As she was landing, she ignored the original plan and headed straight for the Jezero crater, Mission Control would need to live with it. Once she stepped out she didn't hesitate. It took her a while but she finally reached the device. She opened her toolbox and got to work. After 20 minutes, she had replaced the rotor. She cleaned the dust with a cloth and said "fly baby, fly". It was 2054 and Ingenuity could fly once again.
Short #introduction - my area of research is Satellite based communications. Industry-based, not SpaceX.
I also follow space missions and astronomy.
I like to teach and write about -
