The Landers Earthquake, 28 June 1992: Seeing Calfornia Move with GPS Satellites
Imperceptible to human senses, California continues to deform every day at a rate comparable to the growth of fingernails. Convection in the mantle under the Earth's solid crust forces continental-size.

Low Cost Mars Sample Return Utilizing Dragon Lander Project
We studied a Mars sample return (MSR) mission that lands a SpaceX Dragon Capsule on Mars carrying sample collection hardware (an arm, drill, or small rover) and a spacecraft stack consisting of a Mars Ascent Vehicle (MAV) and Earth Return Vehicle (ERV) that collectively carry the sample container from Mars back to Earth orbit.

Status of Developments - Toward Long-Lived Venus Landers
Missions to the surface of Venus have had limitedlife due to the extreme environmental conditions. Theshort life has limited the science that is achievable,and there are gaps in some science, such asseismology, which is enabled by long life. This worksummarizes technical advances that are preparing usfor long-duration (weeks to months) Venus surfacemissions.
