The call everyone was waiting for is in. NASA’s New Horizons spacecraft phoned home just before 9 p.m. EDT Tuesday to tell the mission team and the world it had […]
NASA’s New Horizons spacecraft is at Pluto. After a decade-long journey through our solar system, New Horizons made its closest approach to Pluto Tuesday, about 7,750 miles above the surface […]
The second announcement for the First Landing Site/Exploration Zone Workshop for Human Missions to the Surface of Mars has been released. This announcement provides the details on how to participate […]
We are pleased to announce a session on Mercury at the 2015 AGU Fall Meeting in San Francisco, CA, December 14–18, 2015. NASA’s MESSENGER spacecraft completed more than four years […]
This year’s annual Geological Society of America meeting features numerous sessions devoted to planetary sciences. We would like to highlight the session titled “Oceans, fire, and ice in the outer solar system (T175).” […]
We solicit contributions to a session at this year’s GSA Annual Meeting to take place November 1-4 in Baltimore, MD. This forum will discuss advances in the study of Mars’ ancient sedimentary […]
The composition and physical properties of Small Solar System Bodies (SSSBs), remnants of the formation of planets, are key to better understand our solar system. Increased knowledge of their surface properties and their […]
This session consists in a discussion on the potential of new and future facilities and modeling efforts designed to detect, image and characterize habitable exoplanets, studying their formation, evolution and also the existence […]
There will be a session on the largest two planetary bodies within the main asteroid belt at this year’s AGU Fall Meeting, 14-18 December 2015. Though the session is focussed on […]
We solicit new results from planetary missions, or design studies that target planetary bodies inside or outside of our solar system, with a special focus on science that can only be achieved […]
There will be a session on planetary volcanism and tectonism at this year’s AGU Fall Meeting, 14-18 December. Please consider submitting an abstract for this session. Further details are provided below. The […]
We are organizing a session focused on elucidating and placing constraints on the past and present-day state of planetary interiors through a combination of spacecraft-derived datasets, modeling, and theory. We welcome contributions on […]

The Fourth International Planetary Dunes Workshop: Integrating Models, Remote Sensing, and Field Data was held May 19–22, 2015 in Boise, Idaho (see Final Announcement). More than 60 researchers and students participated in two […]
The “Science and Exploration of Phobos and Deimos” series is jointly organized and led by SSERVI teams at University of Central FL (CLASS) and Brown University/MIT (SEEED) with many SSERVI-affiliated […]
The NASA Postdoctoral Program (NPP) provides opportunities for scientists and engineers to conduct research largely of their own choosing, yet compatible with the research opportunities posted on the NPP Web site. Selected by […]
NASA solicits proposals for the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA) Program. Two-page Step-1 Proposals are due August 19, 2015, and full 25-page Step-2 proposals are due by October 7, 2015. NASA […]
SMD has released final text and announced a Step-2 due date for ROSES-15 C.19 Hayabusa2 Participating Scientist Program. The old text has been totally replaced, the changes have not been tracked. However, the […]
SMD seeks to form gravity and radiation working groups to provide guidance on using Europa Multiple Flyby mission engineering subsystems and/or elements of the selected science instrumentation to conduct additional high priority science. […]
