of an excellent Australian science magazine called COSMOS. More importantly to
me, Jacqui was once one of the Student Navigators, an international group of
students who The Planetary Society brought to JPL in the runup to the Mars
Exploration Rover mission -- organizing that program and training the students
was the original reason I was hired here. So I'm delighted that Jacqui has found
her way into a job communicating science to the public!gwilliams2009-08-19T07:00:45ZTMSSDNewsWave the Moon, and Mars, goodbye… http://www.marssociety.org/portal/mars-news-from-the-san-diego-chapter/TMSSD_News_48280 Posted on August 13, 2009 by phoenixpicsgwilliams2009-08-19T07:00:44ZTMSSDNewsMr Fusion Scenario : What if there is cheap and abundant Nuclear Fusion Power ? http://www.marssociety.org/portal/mars-news-from-the-san-diego-chapter/TMSSD_News_48279 What if Nuclear Fusion Power became cheap and abundant ?gwilliams2009-08-19T07:00:43ZTMSSDNewsHow Much Uranium is in the Solar System ? http://www.marssociety.org/portal/mars-news-from-the-san-diego-chapter/TMSSD_News_48278 We don't know the composition of the asteroids or the objects in the Oort comet
cloud or the Kuiper belt in great detail. One theory of solar system formation
is that there are more metals in the inner solar system. That would mean most of
the uranium is Mars, Mercury, Earth Venus and asteroid belt. There is an
estimated 40 trillion tons of Uranium and 120 trillion tons of thorium in the
Earth's crust. Most of that Uranium is concentrated in the continental crust.
The mantel has lower concentration of uranium, but there is a lot more mantel
and mantel recycles out to crust.gwilliams2009-08-19T07:00:42ZTMSSDNewsMars: A Paradise For Plants (But Not Animals And People?) http://www.marssociety.org/portal/mars-news-from-the-san-diego-chapter/TMSSD_News_48277 Posted by Darnell on Aug 13th, 2009 | 6 commentsgwilliams2009-08-19T07:00:42ZTMSSDNewsState of the Wave — Public Support For Space is Robust http://www.marssociety.org/portal/mars-news-from-the-san-diego-chapter/TMSSD_News_48276 Published by Dr. Bruce Cordell at 3:01 am under Wave Guide 2: Public Opiniongwilliams2009-08-19T07:00:42ZTMSSDNewsAstronomy Picture of the Day http://www.marssociety.org/portal/mars-news-from-the-san-diego-chapter/TMSSD_News_48275 Discover the cosmos!
