Lunar and Planetary Institute Contribution Series
To document the activities of the visiting and staff scientists and other work supported by the Institute, this formal series, called “Lunar and Planetary Institute Contributions,” was initiated in September 1969 while the Institute was under the auspices of the National Academy of Sciences. The series continues today, documenting the scientific research, meeting-related publications, educational materials, outreach products, and other activities of the Lunar and Planetary Institute under Cooperative Agreement NCC5-679.
