Itās great to be back at the NASA Johnson Space Center for our first #Artemis meeting since becoming the first Artemis lunar surface science team. Excited and honoured to be part of humanityās return #ToTheMoon
Check out our new paper on "Static Geotechnical Characterization of Lunar Soil Simulants" www.mdpi.com/3920132 #mdpiaerospace @westernu.ca
It was great to host Henrik Drake & his PhD student Jorinel Domingos from Linnaeus U. to sample drill cores in the Impact Earth collection as part of our ongoing collaboration to investigate the role of meteorite impacts in the origin & evolution of life @westernu.ca
Stay strong Ukraine #SlavaUkraĆÆni
With our vast experience and technical knowledge in prospecting and mineral exploration in šØš¦ it's great to see CSA support this off planet. I'm excited to be supporting Canadian Strategic Missions Corporation on this contract! @westernu.ca
NASA reveals first plans for a Moon base. As for Canada, maybe I was a bit blunt, but āSo we really have to get our act together in Canada to make sure that we can keep up with NASA."

Excited to see this paper published: rdcu.be/fnljA - we have evidence for a long-lived ~8 million year impact-generated hydrothermal system at the Chicxulub impact structure! #ImpactEarth @westernuearth.bsky.social @westernuspace.bsky.social
So you think you've found an impact crater?! Check out this new paper on the impactādiagnostic criteria you can use to confirm such an origin - a product of the Meteoritical Society Impact Cratering Committee onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...
Snuck in a quick early morning run before heading to the airport. Thatās a wrap on the 2026 edition of #ps9605 #fieldschool #westernu
For our final afternoon and night of #ps9605 #fieldschool weāre in the stunning landscape of Snow Canyon State Park. A fantastic way to end the learning experience #geology #planetaryscience
