You may know the Division of #PlanetarySciences (DPS) meeting has an Open Mic Night. Usually participants cover a song together at the end, but for the 2018 meeting, the Division's 50th, I wrote a bespoke finale. I include screenshotted lyrics since I ran across them, plus a bonus related verse. :)
(To the tune of "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band") It's been 50 years more or less Since the very first DPS Open Mic Night's much more new But I'm afraid that the event is through So let me introduce to you An act that takes a couple beers: Open Mic Finale Ad Hoc Band The Open Mic Finale Ad Hoc Band We've had no chance to practice much Open Mic Finale Ad Hoc Band Feel free to watch but do not touch Open Mic Finale Open Mic Finale Open Mic Finale​ Ad Hoc Band It’s wonderful to be here In the city of Knoxville You’re such a lovely audience We’d like to take you home with us In some cases we will I don’t really want to stop the show But I thought you might like to know That a singer’s going to sing a song And we want you all to sing along So let me introduce to you The giant group of folks onstage Open Mic Finale Ad Hoc Band Aaaaaaaaad Hooooooooooc Baaaaaand (to the tune of "With a Little Help from My Friends") What would you do if we sang out of tune? Do you think it would turn out all right? Lend me your beers and we’ll sing you a song And then we can call it a night. We’ll attend the DPS with our friends We’ll offend the DPS with our friends The bitter end of DPS with our friends What do I do when my funding is gone? Are you worried when you’re soft money? How do I feel with no grants to count on? Do you just go to LPSC? No I attend the DPS with my friends I offend the DPS with my friends the bitter end of DPS with my friends Do you like it in Knoxville? It’s not bad as these things go Has your meeting gone well? There’s more to drink than Provo. Oh yes I attend the DPS with my friends I offend the DPS with my friends the bitter end of DPS with my friends Yes I attend the DPS with my friends the DPS with my friends… (Bonus: To the tune of "A Day In The Life") I saw a talk today, oh boy It was about the martian atmosphere And though the talk was kind of sad Well I just had to laugh He showed his spectrograph It blew a fuse out with a surge He didn’t see the calibration changed A crowd of people raised their hands The questions were the worst Everybody said that they were going to make a comment first

I'm just echoing last Craig Walton team manuscript and the astrobiological implications. With the huge diversity of exoplanets out there I think it is a really insightful article for long discussions!

Explaining you briefly some relevant features of the #LL #chondrite #Chelyabinsk with some specimens in our collection. Just to exemplify that many of these meteorites are brave survivors of huge collisions ocurred among main belt asteroids

Curious about the components of #chondrites? A simple approach introducing you the rock-forming components of Allende CV3 chondrite
#PlanetarySciences
joseptrigo.bsky.social Prof. Josep M. Trigo-Rodríguez @joseptrigo.bsky.social · Dec 23
INTRODUCING YOU TO CV3 CHONDRITE #ALLENDE: A pristine member of the Vigarano group, then classified as CV3. It is mostly formed by chondrules, and refractory inclusions. The last ones can be even cm-sized like the one shown, and are known as Ca- and Al-rich inclusions (CAIs)
vm.tiktok.com/ZNRj1yPjd/
A 15 g specimen of Allende still preserving its fusion crust. A part was sectioned and polished to show the rounded chondrules, and the irregular white inclusions called CAIs (Josep M. Trigo/CSIC/IEEC) A cm-sized CAI surrounded by accreted chondrules, creating this authentic sedimentary rock of the "creation"
