(1 hour 30 minutes)
Where:
Space Center Houston (Hosting of all events take place on-line-virtually)
- Learning Innovation Center- Lab 4
Theme:
Grades 9-12
I will
first review how seismic waves are generated on Earth, how they propagate
through a planet, and how we can use seismic recordings to constrain the
interior structure of a planet. I will then talk about the InSight's mission
goals, the geophysical instruments that have been deployed since it landed on
Mars, and will show the seismic data that have been collected, some of which
are freely available online for research and teaching purposes. We will
compare them with earthquakes and Moon quakes, and discuss what they imply
for Mars structure. https://spacecenter.grenadine.co/seec2020/form/SessionEval |
