A research team at LPL demonstrated that ground-penetrating radar mounted on drones can map the thickness of rocky debris covering glaciers on Earth. These results could help future astronauts locate accessible water locked in buried ice on Mars.
LPL researchers developed seismometers for NASA’s Lunar Environment Monitoring Station to capture seismic activity at the moon’s South Pole and assess sites for future human exploration and infrastructure.
