Session ID#: 14064

Session Description:
On land and in the oceans, a variety of environments exist that provide relevant analogs for planetary targets. These include (1) deep oceanic water-rock interactions as analogs to Europa, Enceladus, and early Mars processes; (2) volcanic terrains that extend our understanding of the habitability of Mars; (3) terrestrial impact craters that enable first-hand study of a geological process that ubiquitously affects solid bodies throughout the Solar System; (4) active subaqueous oceanic and fluvial sediment transport that extends our understanding of dune and ripple morphologies as analogs for the thicker atmospheres of Venus and Titan. Science-driven exploration of these and other analogs result in new data, and leads to the development of new and novel operational and technological capabilities that serve to enable and inform the next generation of human-robotic planetary exploration. This session will focus on sharing new results from across diverse yet complementary analog research programs fostering interdisciplinary cooperation.
