IMPACT CRATERING PROCESSES CAN RESULT IN RAPID MELTING AND REDISTRIBUTION OF SIGNIFICANT AMOUNTS OF TARGET MATERIAL, WHICH MAY BE SUPERHEATED TO TEMPERATURES FAR ABOVE THE NORMAL MELTING POINT OF SILICATE ROCKS. THE UNUSUAL THERMAL HISTORIES OF IMPACT MELT DEPOSITS MAKE THEM UNIQUE AMONG IGNEOUS ROCK TYPES, BUT THE OPPORTUNITY TO STUDY THESE MATERIALS ON EARTH IS LIMITED DUE TO THEIR POOR PRESERVATION. FORTUNATELY, LUNAR CRATERS PROVIDE WELL-PRESERVED EXAMPLES OF IMPACT MELT DEPOSITS, AND REMOTE-SENSING OBSERVATIONS OF THEIR MORPHOLOGY CAN PROVIDE INSIGHTS INTO THEIR PHYSICAL PROPERTIES AND EMPLACEMENT HISTORY. LUNAR MELT FLOWS AND SILICATE LAVA FLOWS CAN HAVE SIMILARITIES IN TERMS OF THEIR BULK COMPOSITION AND MORPHOLOGY (E.G., BOTH CAN EXHIBIT EVIDENCE OF CHANNELIZATION AND INFLATION), BUT HOW FAR DOES THIS ANALOGY EXTEND AND WHAT ARE THE EFFECTS OF SUPERHEATING ON MELT FLOW BEHAVIOR? TO ADDRESS THESE QUESTIONS, WE PROPOSE TO THREE INTERRELATED TASKS. FIRST, WE WILL CONDUCT DETAILED GEOLOGIC MAPPING OF LUNAR IMPACT MELT FLOWS USING A COMBINATION OF VISIBLE IMAGERY, RADAR MEASUREMENTS, AND TOPOGRAPHIC DATA ACQUIRED BY THE LUNAR RECONNAISSANCE ORBITER 9LRO). SECOND, WE WILL (A) CHARACTERIZE THE VISCOSITY-TEMPERATURE RELATIONSHIPS FOR HIGHLANDS AND MARIA LUNAR SIMULANT MATERIALS USING LABORATORY FACILITIES AT THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI; AND (B) SIMULATE IMPACT MELT FLOWS USING UNIQUE EXPERIMENTAL FACILITIES AT SYRACUSE UNIVERSITY, WHICH ENABLE LARGE (-350 KG) ANALOG FLOWS TO BE GENERATED BY MELTING SILICATE MATERIALS TO HIGH TEMPERATURES (UP TO 2000C) USING BRONZE FOUNDRY TECHNIQUES. THE LUNAR SIMULANTS WILL BE SYSTEMATICALLY HEATED TO TEMPERATURES ABOVE THEIR LIQUIDUS TO EXPLORE THE EFFECTS OF SUPER HEATING ON FLOW RHEOLOGY, COOLING HISTORY, AND MORPHOLOGY. FINALLY, WE WILL MODIFY, VALIDATE, AND APPLY A THERMO-RHEOLOGICAL MODEL (I.E., FLOWGO) TO INVESTIGATE SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES BETWEEN IMPACT MELT FLOWS AND BASALTIC LAVA FLOWS. THESE MODELS WILL ALSO BE APPLIED TO THE LOCATIONS EXAMINED IN TASK 1 TO INFER IMPACT MELT PROPERTIES, SUCH AS COMPOSITION, INITIAL EMPLACEMENT TEMPERATURE, COOLING HISTORY AND RHEOLOGY. TOGETHER THESE TASKS WILL HELP TO ACHIEVE OUR OVERARCHING GOAL OF CHARACTERIZING IMPACT MELT FLOW PROPERTIES AND THE EFFECTS OF SUPERHEATING ON FLOW BEHAVIOR AND MORPHOLOGY. ADDITIONALLY, THIS WORK WILL ALSO CONTRIBUTE TO A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF FUNDAMENTAL IGNEOUS PROCESSES, INTERPRETATIONS OF LUNAR GEOLOGY, AND FUTURE EXPLORATION STRATEGIES. THESE ACTIVATES ARE RELEVANT TO THE NASA SOLAR SYSTEM WORKINGS (SSW) PROGRAM IN THAT THEY ADDRESS: PLANETARY SURFACE EVOLUTION, GEOMORPHOLOGICAL ANALYSIS OF PLANETARY (I.E., LUNAR) SURFACES, AND IMPACT CRATERING PROCESSES.

| 80NSSC19K1102 | NASA S JOHNSON SPACE CENTER (JSC) HOSTS AND CURATES THE WORLD S MOST EXTENSIVE AND PRECIOUS COLLECTION OF ASTROMATERIALS WITH>250 000 SAMPLES OF EXTRATERRESTRIAL MATERIALS. OVER MORE THAN 40 YEARS THE ASTROMATERIALS ACQUISITION AND CURATION OFFICE HAS MADE THESE SAMPLES AVAILABLE TO THE GLOBAL RESEARCH COMMUNITY TO SUPPORT SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH IN COSMOCHEMISTRY PLANETARY SCIENCES AND ASTRONOMY. THOUSANDS OF LABORATORY STUDIES HAVE BEEN CONDUCTED OVER DECADES TO DESCRIBE AND ANALYZE THE CHEMICAL PHYSICAL AND MINERALOGICAL PROPERTIES OF THE SAMPLES GENERATING A WEALTH OF INFORMATION THAT HAS FUNDAMENTALLY SHAPED OUR UNDERSTANDING OF THE EVOLUTION OF THE SOLAR SYSTEM. THE DATA GENERATED BY THESE STUDIES ARE WIDELY DISPERSED ACROSS DECADES OF SCIENTIFIC PUBLICATIONS AND CONFERENCE ABSTRACTS AND DIFFICULT TO FIND ACCESS AND REUSE. A DEDICATED AND COMPREHENSIVE EFFORT TO CURATE ARCHIVE AND PROVIDE ACCESS TO THESE DATA HAS BEEN LACKING. THE ASTROMATERIALS DATA SYSTEM (ASTROMAT) IS INTENDED TO FULFILL THIS ROLE AND PROVIDE A COMPREHENSIVE LONG-TERM SOLUTION TO THE MANAGEMENT ARCHIVING AND DISSEMINATION OF PAST PRESENT AND FUTURE LABORATORY DATA OF SAMPLES FROM JSC S ASTROMATERIALS COLLECTIONS. ASTROMAT WILL ALIGN MANAGEMENT OF THESE DATA WITH PRINCIPLES FOR CONTINUED FREE AND OPEN ACCESS TO SCIENTIFIC DATA IMPROVED EASE OF USE AND DISCOVERABILITY ENHANCED SCIENCE APPLICATIONS AND INCORPORATION OF BEST PRACTICES THAT HAVE RECENTLY BEEN LAID OUT FOR NASA S STRATEGIC PLANNING EFFORT TO MAXIMIZE THE SCIENTIFIC RETURN ON NASA DATA. ASTROMAT IS DESIGNED AS AN ECOSYSTEM OF INTERCONNECTED APPLICATIONS THAT PROVIDE HUMAN- AND MACHINE-READABLE INTERFACES TO THE DATA MANAGED IN THE ASTROMAT DATA STORE. THE VARIOUS COMPONENTS OF THE ECOSYSTEM SERVE SPECIFIC PURPOSES AND INCLUDE DATABASES (ASTRODB; REPODB); INTERFACES FOR USERS TO SEARCH ACCESS EXPLORE VISUALIZE ANALYZE AND CONTRIBUTE DATA (ASTROSEARCH ASTROREF ASTROPLOT ASTRODESK ASTROREPO); SOFTWARE TOOLS FOR DATA CURATORS TO COMPILE TRACK VALIDATE INGEST MANAGE AND ANNOTATE DATA (ASTROADMIN); AND MACHINE-ACTIONABLE INTERFACES THAT CONNECT THE DATABASES TO INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL SOFTWARE TOOLS (ASTROAPIS REPOAPIS). OVER THE COURSE OF 5 YEARS DATA FROM APPROXIMATELY 1 500 PUBLICATIONS THE LUNAR ANTARCTIC METEORITE COSMIC DUST GENESIS HAYABUSA STARDUST AND MICROPARTICLE IMPACT COLLECTIONS WILL BE COMPILED INTO A SINGLE SYNTHESIS TOGETHER WITH RELEVANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE PROVENANCE OF THE ANALYTICAL MEASUREMENTS (E.G. ANALYTICAL INSTRUMENTATION LABORATORY SAMPLE PREPARATION PROCEDURES INSTRUMENT CALIBRATION DATA REDUCTION) AND TO THE QUALITY OF THE DATA. FOCUS WILL INITIALLY BE ON GEOCHEMICAL MINERALOGICAL AND GEOCHRONOLOGICAL DATA BUT CONTENT WILL BE EXTENDED LATER TO INCLUDE ADDITIONAL DATA TYPES SUCH AS EXPERIMENTAL PETROLOGY IMAGES AND SPECTROGRAPHY. CONTENT OF THE MOONDB DATABASE OF LUNAR SAMPLE DATA WHICH HAS ALREADY BEEN COMPILED OVER THE PAST 4 YEARS WITH FUNDING FROM TWO NASA AWARDS WILL BE INTEGRATED INTO ASTRODB. ASTROMAT AIMS TO ADVANCE AND PROMOTE A CULTURE IN ASTROMATERIALS RESEARCH WHERE OPEN DATA SHARING IS RECOGNIZED AS AN ETHICAL NORM RATHER THAN A BURDEN. IN ORDER TO ACHIEVE THIS GOAL ASTROMAT WILL PROVIDE A SERVICE FOR RESEARCHERS TO PUBLISH AND ARCHIVE THEIR DATA AS CITABLE SCHOLARLY CONTRIBUTIONS (ASTROREPO) FOLLOWING INTERNATIONAL BEST PRACTICES FOR DATA PUBLICATION AND DATA CITATION WHILE AT THE SAME TIME ENGAGE AND TRAIN THE COMMUNITY THROUGH WORKSHOPS WEBINARS NEWSLETTERS AND THE ASTROMAT WEB SITE TO GROW USE OF ASTROMAT AND ADOPTION OF OPEN AND FAIR DATA PRINCIPLES IN THE ASTROMATERIALS RESEARCH COMMUNITY. ASTROMAT WILL BUILD ON THE TECHNICAL ACHIEVEMENTS THE ESTABLISHED AND RECOGNIZED CURATION PRACTICES AND DATA STANDARDS AND THE OPERATIONAL INFRASTRUCTURE OF THE EARTHCHEM DATA SYSTEMS AND SERVICES WHICH HAVE SUPPORTED THE MANAGEMENT OF LABORATORY DATA ACQUIRED ON PHYSICAL SAMPLES FOR OVER 15 YEARS. | 2019-07-01 → 2024-06-30 | $4.6M |

| 80NSSC18K0514 | MOONDB IS A DATA SYSTEM THAT RESTORES AND SYNTHESIZES HISTORICAL ANALYTICAL DATA FROM THE APOLLO LUNAR SAMPLE COLLECTION THAT IS MAINTAINED AND CURATED AT THE JOHNSON SPACE CENTER (JSC) IN HOUSTON TX. THE GOAL OF THE SYSTEM IS TO ENSURE THAT THE RESULTS OF MORE THAN 4 DECADES OF ANALYTICAL WORK ON THIS UNIQUE AND IRREPLACEABLE LEGACY OF THE APOLLO PROGRAM ARE PRESERVED AND ACCESSIBLE FOR MINING AND RE-USE IN FUTURE SCIENTIFIC STUDIES. THE MOONDB PROJECT WHICH HAS BEEN DEVELOPED WITH FUNDING FROM NASAS PDART PROGRAM HAS SO FAR RESCUED AND RESTORED DATA AND METADATA FROM APPROXIMATELY 700 STUDIES INCLUDING UNPUBLISHED ANALYTICAL DATA THAT ARE NOW FULLY INTEGRATED INTO A RELATIONAL DATABASE. THE DATABASE CAN BE ACCESSED ONLINE VIA AN INTERACTIVE USER INTERFACE THAT WILL BE RELEASED AS A BETA VERSION IN JUNE 2017. IN RESPONSE TO FEEDBACK RECEIVED FROM LUNAR SCIENTISTS DURING MOONDB OUTREACH EFFORTS WE HERE PROPOSE TO EXTEND THE RESTORATION OF LUNAR SAMPLE DATA IN MOONDB TO (A) GEOCHRONOLOGICAL DATA AND THEIR ASSOCIATED METADATA; (B) GEOCHEMISTRY AND GEOCHRONOLOGY OF LUNAR METEORITES; TO PROPERLY ARCHIVE AND INTEGRATE THE MOONDB DATA WITH THE PLANETARY DATA SYSTEM; TO ENGAGE A BROADER LUNAR RESEARCH COMMUNITY ESPECIALLY EARLY CAREER SCIENTISTS IN THE DATA RESTORATION AND QUALITY CONTROL/PEERREVIEW OF INGESTED DATA. | 2018-03-01 → 2020-02-29 | $508K |
| 80NSSC19K0761 | WE PROPOSE TO IMPROVE DSCOVR EPIC CALIBRATION USING MEASUREMENTS OF THE EARTH AND THE MOON FOR COMPARISON WITH DATA FROM SEVERAL EARTH- AND MOON-OBSERVING SATELLITES. THE RESULT WILL PROVIDE A VALIDATED ABSOLUTE AND RELATIVE RADIOMETRIC CALIBRATION OF EACH CHANNEL REQUIRED FOR THE L2 EPIC PRODUCTS. FOR CERTAIN REMOTE SENSING APPLICATIONS SEVERAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE EPIC INSTRUMENT MAY BE DESIRABLE. THESE INCLUDE FREQUENT SAMPLING OF THE ENTIRE SUNLIT HEMISPHERE ALMOST BACK SCATTERING EARTH-OBSERVING GEOMETRY IMPROVED COVERAGE AT HIGH LATITUDES AND THE LACK OF SHADOWS. EPIC L2 PRODUCTS SUCH AS AEROSOL AND CLOUD PROPERTIES OZONE AND SULFUR DIOXIDE AMOUNTS AS WELL AS VEGETATION PROPERTIES DEPEND ON THE ACCURATE RADIOMETRIC CALIBRATION OF THE INSTRUMENT CHANNELS. THE EPIC INSTRUMENT DOES NOT HAVE IN-FLIGHT CALIBRATION CAPABILITIES MAKING IT NECESSARY TO DETERMINE THE CALIBRATION COEFFICIENTS AND MONITOR THEIR STABILITY BY MEANS OF VICARIOUS CALIBRATION TECHNIQUES. ONE APPROACH IS TO COMPARE EPIC OBSERVATIONS WITH THE MEASUREMENTS FROM POLAR ORBITING RADIOMETERS. ANOTHER ONE IS TO USE THE IMAGES OF THE MOON REGULARLY CAPTURED BY THE INSTRUMENT. MODIS L1B 1KM REFLECTANCES WERE SUCCESSFULLY USED BY THE PI TO DERIVE THE CALIBRATION COEFFICIENTS FOR FOUR EPIC VISIBLE AND NIR CHANNELS (443 551 680 AND 780 NM). FULL-MOON EPIC OBSERVATIONS WERE THEN USED TO CALIBRATE THE EPIC RADIANCES IN O2 ABSORBING BANDS AT 688 AND 764 NM. THE FORTHCOMING THIRD RELEASE OF EPIC DATA WILL CONTAIN A NUMBER OF OPTICAL CORRECTIONS AND IMPROVED GEOLOCATION. IN ORDER FOR THESE ADVANCES TO YIELD MORE ACCURATE L2 PRODUCTS CONCURRENT IMPROVEMENTS IN RADIOMETRIC CALIBRATION ARE REQUIRED. WE SUBMIT THAT SUCH IMPROVEMENTS MAY BE ACHIEVED USING DATA FROM MULTIPLE LOW EARTH ORBIT (LEO) INSTRUMENTS. EPIC S SUNRISE-TO-SUNSET COVERAGE MAKES IT UNIQUELY SUITABLE FOR COMPARISON WITH MEASUREMENTS MADE BY LEO INSTRUMENTS. DATA FROM A NUMBER OF CURRENTLY OPERATIONAL INSTRUMENTS CAN BE EMPLOYED FOR THIS PURPOSE. THUS WE PROPOSE TO EXTEND THE EPIC CALIBRATION PROCEDURE TO EXPLOIT OTHER CURRENTLY OPERATING EARTH-VIEWING INSTRUMENTS SUCH AS SUOMI NPP VIIRS MISR OCO2 GOME-2 AND GOSAT. THIS WILL ENABLE US TO VALIDATE THE CURRENT CALIBRATION IMPROVE ITS ACCURACY BY EMPLOYING A LARGER VOLUME OF MEASUREMENTS FOR ANALYSIS AND MONITOR STABILITY. WE WILL BEGIN BY IDENTIFYING FAVORABLE MATCHING MEASUREMENTS THAT MEET THE CRITERIA OF BEING SPATIALLY AND TEMPORALLY COLLOCATED AND HAVING THE SAME SCATTERING GEOMETRY. TO MATCH EPIC SPECTRAL CHANNELS SPECTRAL CORRECTIONS WILL THEN BE APPLIED BASED ON THE SCENE TYPE. THE SELECTED MATCHING OBSERVATIONS WILL BE STATISTICALLY ANALYZED TO OBTAIN IMPROVED CALIBRATION COEFFICIENTS. WE WILL EXPLORE THE POSSIBILITIES OF USING UNIQUE FEATURES OF THE ABOVE INSTRUMENTS TO IMPROVE EPIC CALIBRATION. THESE INCLUDE A WIDER SWATH FOR VIIRS AND A GREATER NUMBER OF OBSERVATION GEOMETRIES FOR MISR MATCHING O2-ABSORPTION BANDS AND SPECTRALLY RESOLVED INFORMATION FOR OCO-2 GOME-2 AND GOSAT. THE USE OF MULTIPLE INSTRUMENTS WILL ENABLE US TO PERFORM A CROSS-CHANNEL VALIDATION OF THE CALIBRATION COEFFICIENTS. IN ADDITION THE SYNERGISTIC EFFECT OF USING MULTIPLE INSTRUMENTS FOR ANALYSIS WILL IMPROVE THE ROBUSTNESS OF THE DEVELOPED CALIBRATION. FURTHERMORE WE PROPOSE TO EXPLORE THE POSSIBILITY OF USING REGULAR EPIC LUNAR VIEWS IN COMBINATION WITH LRO LUNAR IMAGES TO DERIVE AN INDEPENDENT SET OF CALIBRATION COEFFICIENTS FOR MATCHING CHANNELS IN PARTICULAR FOR THE 688NM O2-ABSORPTION BAND. THIS WORK WILL RESULT IN NEW AND IMPROVED CALIBRATION VALUES FOR THE EPIC SPECTRAL CHANNELS WHICH IS EXPECTED TO BENEFIT MULTIPLE EPIC L2 PRODUCTS. | 2019-04-04 → 2023-04-03 | $347K |
