Current Thoughts (5/29/2006)

I am currently thrilled about the opportunity to work with the HiRISE team of the Mars Reconaissance Orbiter mission. Being in the thick of humanity's quest to understand our sister planet is no insignificant eperience. It is only the beginning of what I hope is an ever expanding involvement in the discovery and exploration of worlds beyond our own.
