Kring’s research explores the origin of the solar nebula and its evolution into a geologically active planetary system. He is the Principal Investigator of the Center for Lunar Science and Exploration, a member of the NASA Solar System Exploration Research Virtual Institute. Kring will present an additional lecture, entitled “Threat of Impact: Update,” on June 30.
