With recent discoveries like the seven Earth-like exoplanets found orbiting a distant star, it can be easy to forget that our own, humble Solar system is vast, exotic domain which remains mostly unexplored. Following a remit, compelled by Congress, to venture to Mars by 2033, NASA has announced that it has launched four new teams to focus its efforts in exploring our star system. The teams will become part of the Solar System Exploration Research Virtual Institute (SSERVI) and each will study the Moon, asteroids in the vicinity of Earth, and the two Martian moons Phobos and Deimos.
“We look forward to collaborative scientific discoveries from these teams,” Jim Green, Director of the Planetary Science Division of NASA’s Science Mission Directorate in Washington, said. “These results will be vital to NASA successfully conducting the ambitious activities of exploring the solar system with robots and humans.”
The four new NASA teams, as part of SSERVI, are:
“We are extremely pleased that the community responded with such high-quality proposals, and look forward to the many contributions SSERVI will make in addressing NASA’s science and exploration goals,” said SSERVI Director Yvonne Pendleton.
