Downloadable files are provided for each session that includes abstracts. These files are different from the files available through the link "Program with Abstracts" in that they contain the full program listing for a particular session, as well as all the files for the abstracts being presented in that session. These files will provide an easy way for participants to download and print out all the abstracts for a session.
Remember that the titles in the program listings of these files are NOT linked to the individual abstracts as they are in the "Program with Abstracts" version. These files are available via the LPI's anonymous FTP site. Instructions for accessing the site are provided below. The file names are shown to the right of each session (e.g., "full51.pdf"). If you have any questions regarding these files, please contact Linda Tanner at 281-486-2142 or tanner@lpi.usra.edu.
To access the LPI's FTP site, ftp to
ftp.lpi.usra.edu
User Name: anonymous
Password: your e-mail address
Change the directory to
/pub/outgoing/lpsc2010/
and then retrieve the file(s) you are interested in (see listing below).
Note: The files should be downloaded in BINARY mode.
If you prefer to download the files using your web browser, you can simply click on the file names, which are linked to the ftp site. A left click will launch the Acrobat Reader and pull up the file via your browser (this may take some time, depending on the size of the file), and you can then save the file on your machine for later printing or viewing. A right click will give you the option to save the file directly to your machine without first having to launch the Reader and open the file. (A right click on the Mac is accomplished by holding down the command key and then clicking.)

PETROLOGIC CHARACTERIZATION
OF THE MOON
1:30 p.m. Waterway Ballroom 6
Chairs: Juliane Gross
Mirjam van Kan Parker
1:30 p.m. Barr J. A. * Grove T. L. Primordial Lunar Mantle Melts and Assimilated Magma Ocean Cumulates: Implications for the Depth of the Lunar Magma Ocean Based on Ultramafic Glass Compositions [#2427] We have developed a model to predict the chemistry of primordial lunar mantle melts. These model melts can be used in mixing calculations to help constrain the depth of magma ocean cumulates, and by association the depth of the lunar magma ocean.

Introduction:
NASA is evaluating lunar surface architectures that involve sortie and outpost-based exploration within the South Pole-Aitken (SPA) Basin [e.g., 1]. To assist with that evaluation, our team studied the geology of the SPA Basin to locate mission sites that best address the nation’s highest lunar science priorities (NRC 2007, [2]). Our study reveals that crew can begin to address most science objectives within the SPA Basin, which is the oldest (>4 Ga) and largest (~2500 km diameter) impact basin on the Moon and is both topographically and compositionally distinct from the rest of the lunar surface. The study also suggests there are three particularly science-rich mission sites within the SPA Basin: Schrödinger Basin, Antoniadi Crater, and Von Kármán Crater. Mission options within Schrödinger Basin have been previously outlined [3]. Here we describe opportunities within Antoniadi Crater and, in a companion abstract [4], we discuss Von Kármán Crater.

Well at least the LRO is getting results.
More press releases, more public relation output, more interactions with those who control the purse strings.
Someone paint the big picture, there is a lot of space out there.
What and adventure to take part in.
