A colleague who is organizing a conference on 'Catastrophic Disruptions in the Solar System' (http://www.cd8.hawaii-conference.com) in Hawaii is seeing a fallout in attendees because of restrictions on travel by both NASA employees and grant holders. Whats even more unpalatable for me is the sequester's cuts on NASA's spending in public outreach and STEM programs, my field. So although off-topic, because I teach K12 and undergraduates astronomy and physics through meteoritics, I would like to encourage all of you to please sign an e-petition to repeal the sequester's cuts on NASA spending in public outreach and STEM programs: https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/repeal-sequesters-cuts-nasas-spending-public-outreach-and-its-stem-programs/kY7Tw85q Because without funding for public outreach and science education today, how are we to inspire and nurture tomorrow's scientists, engineers and technicians? gary On Mar 26, 2013, at 6:28 AM, Carl Agee <agee at unm.edu> wrote: > As the "Sequestration" starts to propagate... > > Carl Agee > > > -- > Carl B.

The scientists at Galactic Analytics have been working on a project behind the scenes and the time has come to announce it publicly.? GA will stop performing radar analyses of meteorite falls. The same people will continue working on this project (don't worry!!), but we are transferring operations from Galactic Analytics to the Planetary Research Institute, a nonprofit research institution. We will continue to perform analyses, but they will appear on a PSI web page, and the "old" events will be transferred to the PSI website as well. PSI will also offer rapid, affordable meteorite classification services as well, picking up GA's efforts in that direction. ------- WHAT THIS MEANS TO SUBSCRIPTION HOLDERS: ??? GA has suspended the sale of annual subscriptions ahead of transferring to PSI. The goal is to do away with subscriptions entirely and make the radar data openly available to the public.? This will take some time, however, as alternative funding efforts are underway. Since PSI is a nonprofit research institution, they can accept private donations, NASA and other government funding, and other sources of funding that were not available to GA. This will be used to continue operations. ??? Your subscription will still be honored! Existing one-year subscriptions will be allowed to expire over the course of the ~one-year transition period. In the meanwhile, all data will be available on the single-event basis to those without annual subscriptions. The three-day wait for the single-event subscriptions will no longer be used. At the end of the coming one-year period, other funding should be in place and radar data will be openly available. ??? GA's website will be transferred to PSI's servers soon, but there should be no interruption in service. You'll have to update your browser links, but that is all. ------- ABOUT PSI: ??? The Planetary Research Institute (http://www.psi.edu) is a widely respected research institute based in Tucson, AZ that has been actively engaged in planetary science and public outreach since 1972.? Roughly half of PSI's scientists live and work in Tucson, and the rest are scattered across the US and around the world. PSI is a flexible, responsive organization composed of dedicated and motivated science professionals. At a time when most research institutes are cutting back under budgetary pressures, PSI has continued to grow: http://tucsoncitizen.com/press-releases/2013/03/01/planetary-science-institute-opens-new-tucson-conference-center/ ??? PSI scientists perform research in a broad range of planetary science and astronomy, and near-term plans include manned suborbital spaceflight for astronomical observations: http://www.psi.edu/atsa -------- METEORITE CLASSIFICATION: ??? PSI will pick up GA's efforts to offer a rapid, affordable meteorite classification service.? A great deal of progress has been made in this effort, and we anticipate that the service will commence in the coming months although we do not have a solid date yet. Please stay tuned. -------- OTHER STUFF ??? Dr. Marc Fries has accepted a job offer with NASA, working at the meteorite curation office in Houston, TX. Dr. Fries will still work on radar analyses on a part-time basis and has begun training PSI personnel to join in the effort. In the end, there will be more analysts working on locating meteorite falls, which means more meteorites! PSI's personnel and expertise resources will be brought to bear, allowing the project to grow more than it could under Galactic Analytics. Dr. Vishnu Reddy and Dr. Lucille LeCorre of PSI will take leading roles in the new effort. ??? This is going to be a good thing. We get to carry on with a new period of growth, training more analysts and getting more people involved. The meteorite analysis effort will grow into an expansive, self-supporting entity that truly does bring planetary science "down to Earth" into schools, museums and collections. We hope to expand meteorite recovery into a multifaceted science experience, with outreach efforts in the communities where meteorite falls occur, in-house analytical services at PSI, and inclusive research and recovery efforts that include scientists, meteorite hunters, hobbyists, and the general public. ???

Guitarist, Beloved Young Adult Author To: meteorite-list at meteoritecentral.com (Meteorite Mailing List) Message-ID: <201303262136.r2QLaglH024855 at zagami.jpl.nasa.gov> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii http://messenger.jhuapl.edu/news_room/details.php?id=238 MESSENGER Mission News March 26, 2013 Newly Named Mercury Craters Honor Hawaiian Guitarist, Beloved Young Adult Author The International Astronomical Union (IAU) - the arbiter of planetary and satellite nomenclature since its inception in 1919 - recently approved a proposal from the MESSENGER Science Team to assign names to nine impact craters on Mercury. In keeping with the established naming theme for craters on Mercury, all of the newly designated features are named after famous deceased artists, musicians, or authors or other contributors to the humanities. The newly named craters are ? ? * Alver, for Betti Alver (1906-1989), an Estonian writer who rose ? ? ? to prominence in the 1930s, toward the end of Estonian ? ? ? independence and on the eve of World War II. She published her ? ? ? first novel, Mistress in the Wind, in 1927. She also wrote ? ? ? several short stories, poetry, and translations. ? ? * Donelaitis, for Kristijonas Donelaitis (1714-1780), a Lutheran ? ? ? pastor who was considered one of the greatest Lithuanian poets. He ? ? ? is best known for The Seasons, considered the first classic ? ? ? Lithuanian poem. It depicts the everyday life of Lithuanian ? ? ? peasants. His other works include six fables and a tale in verse. ? ? * Flaiano, for Ennio Flaiano (1910-1972), an Italian screenwriter, playwright, novelist, journalist, and drama critic especially ? ? ? noted for his social satires. He became a leading figure of the ? ? ? Italian motion-picture industry after World War II, collaborating ? ? ? with writer Tullio Pinelli on the early films of writer and ? ? ? director Federico Fellini. ? ? * Hurley, for James Francis "Frank" Hurley (1885-1962), an ? ? ? Australian photographer and adventurer. He participated in several ? ? ? expeditions to Antarctica and served as an official photographer ? ? ? with Australian Imperial Forces during both world wars. The troops ? ? ? called him "the mad photographer," because he took considerable ? ? ? risks to obtain photographs. ? ? * L'Engle, for Madeleine L'Engle (1918-2007), an American writer ? ? best known for young-adult fiction, particularly the award-winning ? ? ? A Wrinkle in Time and its sequels: A Wind in the Door, A ? ? ? Swiftly Tilting Planet, Many Waters, and An Acceptable Time. ? ? ? Her works reflect both her Christian faith and her strong interest ? ? ? in modern science. ? ? * Lovecraft, for Howard Phillips Lovecraft (1890-1937), an ? ? ? American author of horror, fantasy, and science fiction regarded ? ? ? as one of the most influential horror writers of the 20th Century. ? ? ? He popularized "cosmic horror," the notion that some concepts, ? ? ? entities, or experiences are barely comprehensible to human minds, ? ? ? and those who delve into such topics risk their sanity. ? ? * Petofi, for Sandor Petofi (1823-1849), a Hungarian poet and ? ? ? liberal revolutionary. He wrote the Nemzeti dal (National Poem), ? ? ? which is said to have inspired the Hungarian Revolution of 1848 ? ? ? that grew into a war for independence from the Austrian Empire. ? ? * Pahinui, for Charles Phillip Kahahawai "Gabby" Pahinui, ? ? ? (1921-1980), a Hawaiian guitar player considered to be one of the ? ? ? most influential slack-key guitar players in the world. His music ? ? ? was a key part of the "Hawaiian Renaissance," a resurgence of ? ? ? interest in traditional Hawaiian culture during the 1970s. ? ? * Roerich, for Nicholas Roerich (1874-1947), a Russian painter and ? ? ? philosopher who initiated the modern movement for the defense of ? ? ? cultural objects. His most notable achievement was the Roerich ? ? ? Pact of 1935, an international treaty signed by India, the Baltic ? ? ? states, and 22 nations of the Americas (including the United ? ? ? States), affirming that monuments, museums, scientific, artistic, ? ? ? educational, and cultural institutions and their personnel are to ? ? ? be considered neutral in times of war unless put to military use. Ray Espiritu, a mission operations engineer on the MESSENGER team, submitted Pahinui's name for consideration. "I wanted to honor the place where I grew up and still call home even after many years away," he says. "The Pahinui crater contains a possible volcanic vent, and its name may inspire other scientists as they investigate the volcanic processes that helped to create Mercury, just as investigation of Hawaiian volcanoes helps us understand the volcanic processes that shape the Earth we know today." These nine newly named craters join 95 other craters named since the MESSENGER spacecraft's first Mercury flyby in January 2008. "We are delighted that the IAU has once again assigned formal names to a new set of craters on Mercury," adds MESSENGER Principal Investigator Sean Solomon of Columbia University's Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory. "These names will make it easier to discuss these features in the scientific literature, and they provide a fresh opportunity to honor individuals who have contributed to the cultural richness of our planet." More information about the names of features on Mercury and the other objects in the Solar System can be found at the U.S. Geological Survey's Planetary Nomenclature Web site: http://planetarynames.wr.usgs.gov/index.html . ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MESSENGER (MErcury Surface, Space ENvironment, GEochemistry, and Ranging) is a NASA-sponsored scientific investigation of the planet Mercury and the first space mission designed to orbit the planet and entered orbit about Mercury on March 17, 2011 (March 18, 2011 UTC), to begin a yearlong study of its target planet. MESSENGER's extended mission began on March 18, 2012, and ended one year later. A possible second extended mission is currently under evaluation by NASA. Dr. Sean C. Solomon, the Director of Columbia University's Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory, leads the mission as Principal Investigator. The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory built and operates the MESSENGER spacecraft and manages this Discovery-class mission for NASA. ------------------------------ Message: 7 Date: Tue, 26 Mar 2013 15:00:36 -0700 From: Marc Fries <chief_scientist at galacticanalytics.com> Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] Galactic Analytics Announcement To: Meteorite Mailing List <meteorite-list at meteoritecentral.com> Message-ID: ??? <97D3B93E-339F-448B-BB63-5A667E03941D at galacticanalytics.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Oh for cryin' out loud; make that Planetary SCIENCE Institute!!???I did it twice, too...? ugh.?

Don McCarthy has been given a stop work order for NIRCam (James Webb Space Telescope) which has affected the Astronomy Camp for Girl Scout staff and volunteers that was to be held in a little over a week. While it has not been officially cancelled (we are trying to get a waiver for it), we have been told that we cannot pay for the participants to come to Tucson (the travel restriction). Some have cancelled and so are out of pocket for the cancellation fee and others are still planning to come anyway (but it is not clear if we can even officially hold the camp). We hope to have a go/no go in a day or so, but it is getting close with some people flying out in 9 days. Hopefully we will hear from NASA about the waiver one way or the other and see if we can still hold the camp and maybe even pay for their airfares. So, please sign the petition so that we can all get back to work and do what we love to do: educate our youth and the public.
