A french researcher going to the #LPSC conference outside of Houston wasn't allowed to enter the US. After a "random" control at the border, the police searched their phone and computer and found compromising statements about Trump.
From the #LPSC 'NASA Night' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ns4sVQ81DiI a list of the next #CLPS missions: NASA will have more Stereo Cameras for Lunar Plume-Surface Studies (SCALPSS) on #BlueOrigin's HLS test lander. They also reported superb results from #BlueGhost with 6 of the NASA experiments already completed and the remainder being done once the hot noon is over. Not much came out of #Athena, obviously, and they're still trying to make contact with the Lunar Trailblazer - no indication of the hope level ...
Can anybody comment on the status of the Venus #Veritas mission? I am failing to put the news I'm getting from #LPSC into the right context. AFAIK the mission is delayed and funding was held back, but is the mission at risk of being completely cancelled? That would be a giant setback and very sad. I know, this is not your specific field of expertise, but @vicgrinberg do you have a take on this?
The science team for NASA's New Horizons mission to the Kuiper Belt shares the latest findings on #Pluto's geology, the origins of a snowman-shaped object called Arrokoth, and coming attractions of cosmic proportions: https://cosmiclog.com/2023/03/14/pluto-team-updates-science-from-the-solar-systems-edge/ #Space #LPSC
Its official. #PlanetaryScientists did not migrate to mastodon. The first day of the Lunar and Planetary Science Conference is almost over and there are only about 5 posts on #mastodon, but hundreds on the site owned, run and censored by a sociopathic LGBTQ+phobe (among other things). Apparently, its business as usual for early career scientists that use social modia. 
#LPSC #LPSC2023
The Lunar and Planetary Science Conference (#LPSC) has been held in #Texas since 1970 when the first results from the #Apollo11 mission were presented. This year will be the last in Texas, and the organizers are searching for a new location.
This abstract "Ethics in choosing a meeting location" describes some of the issues that should be considered. "Is Texas safe for all members of our community? Unfortunately, the answer in 2023 is NO, they are not."
No Haiku's but two #LPSC abstracts submitted!
#1651 is on some work I'm doing to understand features in the volcanic floor units in Jezero.
#1668 is on some exciting open GIS standards that will help with cloud-computing-native PSDI!
Oh the details on this space shirt. I am swooning 
Metallic buttons. 
Cannot get over this space shirt AT ALL! PSYCHED to wear this at #LPSC !!
I think I thrifted the coolest space shirt! This is definitely going into my #LPSC lookbook 
LPSC is important for me for the FIRE #spacescience & the FIRE #space fits
I know I know... it's still early for LPSC...but never too early to get PUMPED about LPSC fits!
