Targets of Interest: Moon, Mars
Disciplines/Techniques: Geology, Radar, ISRU
Missions: MRO
My work focuses on radar analysis of polar and mid-latitude ices on Mars, significantly contributing to our understanding of the Martian polar caps. Additionally, I am deeply engaged in research on In-Situ Resource Utilization (ISRU) on Mars, with a particular focus on the extraction of ice as a vital resource. My interests also extend to the exploration of other minerals and metals on Mars, aiming to advance sustainable resource utilization in future planetary missions.
