1 00:00:06,650 --> 00:00:04,400 okay Carl culture director and ghoulish 2 00:00:10,930 --> 00:00:06,660 deputy are both one travel and have 3 00:00:15,470 --> 00:00:10,940 asked me to introduce the seminar today 4 00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:15,480 we're fortunate having six summer 5 00:00:22,010 --> 00:00:18,930 interns from the astrobiology Center at 6 00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:22,020 Goddard here today to give brief 7 00:00:27,109 --> 00:00:23,490 summaries of the research that they 8 00:00:29,779 --> 00:00:27,119 perform this summer this is our fourth 9 00:00:33,260 --> 00:00:29,789 summer running this internship program 10 00:00:35,420 --> 00:00:33,270 which we're happy to say has been wildly 11 00:00:40,069 --> 00:00:35,430 successful this some are being no 12 00:00:42,170 --> 00:00:40,079 exception and I think it's safe to say 13 00:00:44,959 --> 00:00:42,180 that each and every intern that's gone 14 00:00:47,350 --> 00:00:44,969 through here is actually accomplished 15 00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:47,360 some new state-of-the-art research and 16 00:00:52,340 --> 00:00:49,770 of course the most important thing for 17 00:00:53,689 --> 00:00:52,350 each person is that they've experienced 18 00:00:56,270 --> 00:00:53,699 the manner in which state-of-the-art 19 00:01:00,740 --> 00:00:56,280 research is done and that's why they're 20 00:01:03,250 --> 00:01:00,750 here so without further ado let me call 21 00:01:06,820 --> 00:01:03,260 on our first intern intern Charlotte 22 00:01:09,469 --> 00:01:06,830 karlstrom was from every university 23 00:01:13,010 --> 00:01:09,479 who's been working this summer with jen 24 00:01:15,649 --> 00:01:13,020 i didn't bro a number of our s well as a 25 00:01:17,359 --> 00:01:15,659 team and she will speak to us today 26 00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:17,369 Charlotte will speak to us on molecular 27 00:01:24,980 --> 00:01:19,650 signatures of life and surface ice and 28 00:01:28,310 --> 00:01:24,990 snow as a Mars analog huh ok so my name 29 00:01:30,980 --> 00:01:28,320 is Charlotte cross term and I um ok so 30 00:01:33,260 --> 00:01:30,990 my summer project dealt with trying to 31 00:01:35,960 --> 00:01:33,270 find signatures of life and surface ice 32 00:01:38,030 --> 00:01:35,970 and snow so that we can take whatever we 33 00:01:40,069 --> 00:01:38,040 learn about signatures of life here on 34 00:01:44,060 --> 00:01:40,079 earth to other places where life isn't 35 00:01:45,980 --> 00:01:44,070 apparent like Mars or any other icy moon 36 00:01:49,580 --> 00:01:45,990 or well it doesn't have to be icy been 37 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:49,590 any other planet really so not only we 38 00:01:53,020 --> 00:01:50,850 have to find what these signatures of 39 00:01:56,450 --> 00:01:53,030 life are but we have to be able to 40 00:01:59,630 --> 00:01:56,460 determine how to examine them in another 41 00:02:01,760 --> 00:01:59,640 place and so after we find the 42 00:02:03,709 --> 00:02:01,770 signatures we have to compare the 43 00:02:06,190 --> 00:02:03,719 effectiveness of pyrolysis which is with 44 00:02:08,570 --> 00:02:06,200 Sam the sample analysis at Mars 45 00:02:10,910 --> 00:02:08,580 instrument in Phoenix which is actually 46 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:10,920 there right now the effectiveness of 47 00:02:13,490 --> 00:02:11,850 those 48 00:02:14,990 --> 00:02:13,500 this versus what we use conventionally 49 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:15,000 which is the lipid extraction and 50 00:02:20,300 --> 00:02:17,610 derivatives ation and my work here was 51 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:20,310 directly related to Sam in particular 52 00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:23,490 because of the GCMs that we use is the 53 00:02:28,220 --> 00:02:25,890 same setup as Sam as is that pyrolysis 54 00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:28,230 cell is set up just like Sam with the 55 00:02:34,790 --> 00:02:32,010 trap with the glass beads and 10 acts 56 00:02:38,350 --> 00:02:34,800 it's the exact same setup so this is why 57 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:38,360 it's related to that so what are lipids 58 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:40,530 lipids are fatty acids and their 59 00:02:46,550 --> 00:02:44,010 derivatives for the purpose of this is 60 00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:46,560 going to be just fats but they're found 61 00:02:51,890 --> 00:02:49,170 within cell membranes as you can see 62 00:02:55,460 --> 00:02:51,900 here and they're also used for cellular 63 00:02:58,370 --> 00:02:55,470 structure cellular messengers and energy 64 00:03:00,610 --> 00:02:58,380 storage so the picture that you see here 65 00:03:03,980 --> 00:03:00,620 are three of the most widely distributed 66 00:03:06,710 --> 00:03:03,990 fatty acids and these are important 67 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:06,720 because they're found in pretty much all 68 00:03:11,330 --> 00:03:08,970 life but there there are signatures of 69 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:11,340 life in life in themselves in that they 70 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:13,170 they're even chained which is a 71 00:03:17,990 --> 00:03:16,410 signature of life because of lipogenesis 72 00:03:19,940 --> 00:03:18,000 how lipids are made it starts with 73 00:03:22,130 --> 00:03:19,950 acetic acid which is a two carbon chain 74 00:03:25,340 --> 00:03:22,140 so usually you get even numbers of 75 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:25,350 carbons but also linoleic acid in the 76 00:03:30,470 --> 00:03:27,810 bottom shows on saturation which is also 77 00:03:32,660 --> 00:03:30,480 a trademark of life because usually when 78 00:03:34,970 --> 00:03:32,670 you see unsaturated fatty acids they 79 00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:34,980 have to be confined to some form of life 80 00:03:41,630 --> 00:03:36,690 so that they stay in the unsaturated 81 00:03:44,090 --> 00:03:41,640 State um this is a site in Norway where 82 00:03:45,740 --> 00:03:44,100 the samples were collected and here in 83 00:03:47,390 --> 00:03:45,750 the top left you see the green snow 84 00:03:50,300 --> 00:03:47,400 algae hear in the background where I'm 85 00:03:52,430 --> 00:03:50,310 pointing is the red snow algae and here 86 00:03:55,510 --> 00:03:52,440 is the cry of co night which usually 87 00:03:58,670 --> 00:03:55,520 form in this summer and they form when 88 00:04:00,410 --> 00:03:58,680 matter gets collected dark matter gets 89 00:04:02,630 --> 00:04:00,420 kool-aid collected in the eyes and then 90 00:04:05,620 --> 00:04:02,640 absorbs heat from the Sun and it starts 91 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:05,630 sinking in and eventually they become 92 00:04:10,100 --> 00:04:08,610 harvest harvest source of life because 93 00:04:12,530 --> 00:04:10,110 they have lots of nutrients that good 94 00:04:15,260 --> 00:04:12,540 stuff where things like to grow this is 95 00:04:16,910 --> 00:04:15,270 a close-up microscopic images of the 96 00:04:19,460 --> 00:04:16,920 snow algae samples these were taking a 97 00:04:22,009 --> 00:04:19,470 thing two years before the samples that 98 00:04:24,529 --> 00:04:22,019 I'm analyzing but these are 99 00:04:26,749 --> 00:04:24,539 red snow algae samples these two are in 100 00:04:28,850 --> 00:04:26,759 red snow algae here you see the orange 101 00:04:30,770 --> 00:04:28,860 the yellow the red the green and these 102 00:04:32,869 --> 00:04:30,780 are mineral grains here you see the 103 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:32,879 green and the red here is red and orange 104 00:04:37,999 --> 00:04:35,490 and here these are camino Moniz Novalis 105 00:04:40,850 --> 00:04:38,009 which is the most abundant snow algae 106 00:04:42,710 --> 00:04:40,860 and these is a green one and this is a 107 00:04:44,629 --> 00:04:42,720 red and this is actually pointing to the 108 00:04:47,390 --> 00:04:44,639 chlorophyll and both of them so you can 109 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:47,400 see the different this is the setup of 110 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:50,250 the instruments and the methodology that 111 00:04:54,469 --> 00:04:52,289 we use so there's two different methods 112 00:04:56,570 --> 00:04:54,479 the first one is the conventional and 113 00:04:59,570 --> 00:04:56,580 that's the wet chemistry method and that 114 00:05:01,580 --> 00:04:59,580 uses the eight accelerated sylvan 115 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:01,590 extractor uses high temperatures and 116 00:05:05,809 --> 00:05:03,690 pressures to extract lipids from the 117 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:05,819 cells and these are then methylated with 118 00:05:10,249 --> 00:05:07,770 acetic or and methanol at 100 degrees 119 00:05:12,620 --> 00:05:10,259 and this goes directly into the GC 120 00:05:15,409 --> 00:05:12,630 through here where they're separated and 121 00:05:17,390 --> 00:05:15,419 then analyzed in a mass spec the second 122 00:05:19,820 --> 00:05:17,400 method which is what as what Sam and 123 00:05:22,670 --> 00:05:19,830 Phoenix use is paralysis and that takes 124 00:05:25,399 --> 00:05:22,680 a sample and heats it to thermally 125 00:05:27,409 --> 00:05:25,409 evolved this the whatever is found in 126 00:05:29,510 --> 00:05:27,419 there and then that goes through the GC 127 00:05:30,860 --> 00:05:29,520 column and it's analyzed so those those 128 00:05:34,070 --> 00:05:30,870 are the two methods that we're comparing 129 00:05:36,409 --> 00:05:34,080 right now this is what I started with to 130 00:05:38,330 --> 00:05:36,419 try to learn how to read mass spectra as 131 00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:38,340 well as gasps gasps chromatograms and 132 00:05:43,219 --> 00:05:40,770 this is the fatty fatty acid methyl 133 00:05:46,730 --> 00:05:43,229 ester standard each of the peaks 134 00:05:49,939 --> 00:05:46,740 represents a different compound the one 135 00:05:52,249 --> 00:05:49,949 that I have highlighted here it at 49 44 136 00:05:53,330 --> 00:05:52,259 minutes turns out to be hexadecane noak 137 00:05:55,850 --> 00:05:53,340 acid which is the most widely 138 00:05:57,170 --> 00:05:55,860 distributed fatty acid again and so this 139 00:06:00,469 --> 00:05:57,180 around here is basically another 140 00:06:04,519 --> 00:06:00,479 dimension to this the gas chromatogram 141 00:06:06,709 --> 00:06:04,529 and it shows that the process of fist 142 00:06:09,950 --> 00:06:06,719 and you can tell by its weight which is 143 00:06:12,769 --> 00:06:09,960 270 that's the molecular ion right here 144 00:06:15,230 --> 00:06:12,779 but each of the peaks is representative 145 00:06:16,670 --> 00:06:15,240 of a fragment of this molecule depending 146 00:06:19,249 --> 00:06:16,680 on how it breaks up so when you have 147 00:06:21,350 --> 00:06:19,259 only the part on the right with one 148 00:06:23,300 --> 00:06:21,360 carbon you get the 74 when you have two 149 00:06:26,180 --> 00:06:23,310 carbons you get the 87 and so on and so 150 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:26,190 forth and this Peaks the correct format 151 00:06:30,829 --> 00:06:28,289 among peeps Peaks are important because 152 00:06:34,159 --> 00:06:30,839 you can either refute or support the 153 00:06:35,270 --> 00:06:34,169 identity of an unknown based on how the 154 00:06:37,490 --> 00:06:35,280 aleutian time 155 00:06:41,540 --> 00:06:37,500 because it's the same every time basin 156 00:06:43,670 --> 00:06:41,550 that it's on the same method this is the 157 00:06:45,770 --> 00:06:43,680 actual data of one of the samples this 158 00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:45,780 is the green algae and on the top you 159 00:06:49,790 --> 00:06:47,610 see the conventional method and is very 160 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:49,800 clean and you can see each of the assets 161 00:06:53,510 --> 00:06:51,810 that we were expecting to find and these 162 00:06:54,950 --> 00:06:53,520 are actually found in all samples not 163 00:06:57,140 --> 00:06:54,960 just in this one the ones you see here 164 00:07:00,080 --> 00:06:57,150 when you order pyrolysis which actually 165 00:07:04,190 --> 00:07:00,090 was at 610 degrees Celsius you don't see 166 00:07:07,280 --> 00:07:04,200 a clear definition I guess of the peaks 167 00:07:09,290 --> 00:07:07,290 that we were looking for and here i 168 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:09,300 found a lot of sugars and a lot of 169 00:07:14,530 --> 00:07:11,690 different things that not necessarily 170 00:07:19,659 --> 00:07:14,540 were expected to be found in the algae 171 00:07:22,820 --> 00:07:19,669 lots of sugars and unusual rings present 172 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:22,830 and we wait let me go back we think that 173 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:26,010 this could be also because the trap that 174 00:07:31,940 --> 00:07:28,530 the instrument has the pyrolysis self 175 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:31,950 could have retained the fatty acid so 176 00:07:36,379 --> 00:07:33,930 another option for Sam is to get rid of 177 00:07:39,140 --> 00:07:36,389 the glass bead trap and the Tanakh to 178 00:07:40,430 --> 00:07:39,150 try to get all of the gas that we get so 179 00:07:42,170 --> 00:07:40,440 that's something that could be not to 180 00:07:45,260 --> 00:07:42,180 try to see if we see the same fatty 181 00:07:47,270 --> 00:07:45,270 acids that we know are present so these 182 00:07:49,100 --> 00:07:47,280 are all the fatty acids that were found 183 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:49,110 in disloyalty samples using the 184 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:51,210 conventional method and as you can see 185 00:07:57,500 --> 00:07:54,570 there's plenty of unsaturation here 186 00:07:59,350 --> 00:07:57,510 which we expected to find most of them 187 00:08:03,110 --> 00:07:59,360 are even chained which is also a 188 00:08:04,340 --> 00:08:03,120 something we expected and something 189 00:08:06,830 --> 00:08:04,350 interesting that we found is this 190 00:08:09,230 --> 00:08:06,840 company compound here at dodecane 11 191 00:08:11,630 --> 00:08:09,240 it's actually a dial not methoxy because 192 00:08:15,770 --> 00:08:11,640 this is once it's been derivatized it 193 00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:15,780 changes to the oh ch3 instead of the o H 194 00:08:19,190 --> 00:08:17,850 and that hasn't been found before and 195 00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:19,200 it's interesting because we don't really 196 00:08:24,380 --> 00:08:21,210 know what it's doing so that's something 197 00:08:26,900 --> 00:08:24,390 that needs to be looked at to in 198 00:08:29,210 --> 00:08:26,910 conclusion we determined that wet 199 00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:29,220 chemistry is a lot cleaner and clearer 200 00:08:34,219 --> 00:08:31,890 than its pyrolysis but since pyrolysis 201 00:08:37,490 --> 00:08:34,229 is what most of the instruments how are 202 00:08:39,790 --> 00:08:37,500 they are using it has to be taken into 203 00:08:42,770 --> 00:08:39,800 account it has to work it has to be 204 00:08:45,620 --> 00:08:42,780 worked with a little more to try to find 205 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:45,630 if whoa how it matches the wet chemistry 206 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:48,450 data um they're the 207 00:08:51,890 --> 00:08:49,890 also founded there are several fatty 208 00:08:53,950 --> 00:08:51,900 acids that service biomarkers for life 209 00:08:57,800 --> 00:08:53,960 identification which is a good thing and 210 00:09:01,730 --> 00:08:57,810 we found that those tend to agree with 211 00:09:04,460 --> 00:09:01,740 the even chain fatty acid theory of life 212 00:09:07,700 --> 00:09:04,470 how lip lipogenesis is made lipids are 213 00:09:09,770 --> 00:09:07,710 made the two carbon chain and also the 214 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:09,780 unsaturation we found quite a few of 215 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:13,410 saturated fatty acids and so I would 216 00:09:18,560 --> 00:09:16,170 like to take Thank GCA for a great 217 00:09:21,350 --> 00:09:18,570 summer dr.

Jason 251 00:11:02,699 --> 00:11:00,020 gorkon and she's going to talk to us 252 00:11:05,820 --> 00:11:02,709 about amino acids in the bag using 253 00:11:09,389 --> 00:11:05,830 various approaches to protect 254 00:11:13,990 --> 00:11:09,399 contamination in meteoritic samples I 255 00:11:17,680 --> 00:11:14,000 never said because of the air now up up 256 00:11:21,850 --> 00:11:17,690 one more next to Charlotte's name and by 257 00:11:27,490 --> 00:11:21,860 now and then go to the little over right 258 00:11:30,670 --> 00:11:27,500 there hi I'm area Lewis and as dr. 259 00:11:34,389 --> 00:11:30,680 Loomis said I did a study on amino acid 260 00:11:36,250 --> 00:11:34,399 contamination using lcf d tov ms which 261 00:11:37,329 --> 00:11:36,260 is liquid chromatography fluorescence 262 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:37,339 detector time-of-flight mass 263 00:11:43,810 --> 00:11:41,450 spectroscopy and i did this study 264 00:11:45,460 --> 00:11:43,820 concerning amino acids due to an snap 265 00:11:48,190 --> 00:11:45,470 and for those of you who don't know an 266 00:11:50,110 --> 00:11:48,200 smit is the antarctic antarctica search 267 00:11:51,579 --> 00:11:50,120 for meteorites and they choose 268 00:11:54,910 --> 00:11:51,589 antarctica is a site because it's very 269 00:11:56,860 --> 00:11:54,920 easy to see meteorites on white ice and 270 00:11:59,260 --> 00:11:56,870 also because of the way that the ice 271 00:12:01,660 --> 00:11:59,270 shifts you can get specific places sites 272 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:01,670 such as Lewis cliffs that collect large 273 00:12:05,769 --> 00:12:04,130 large amounts of meteorites over long 274 00:12:08,139 --> 00:12:05,779 periods of time so they've been 275 00:12:09,699 --> 00:12:08,149 collecting these meteorites since 1976 276 00:12:11,470 --> 00:12:09,709 and they've collected over ten thousand 277 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:11,480 meteorites since then and what they do 278 00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:13,610 is they find a meteorite as you can see 279 00:12:18,310 --> 00:12:15,170 two in the picture on your right and 280 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:18,320 pretty much put it in a bag as much like 281 00:12:23,319 --> 00:12:21,250 the ones you see in the kit on the left 282 00:12:26,319 --> 00:12:23,329 but what's happened is when you take 283 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:26,329 these meteorites from ann smith and you 284 00:12:31,180 --> 00:12:28,010 hydrolyze the meteorite samples you 285 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:31,190 getting this large mystery peak in the 286 00:12:37,780 --> 00:12:34,610 chromatograph and so this mystery peak 287 00:12:41,530 --> 00:12:37,790 was determined to be epsilon amino and 288 00:12:44,079 --> 00:12:41,540 come okay epsilon amino and caproic acid 289 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:44,089 also known as EK and it's a hydrolyzed 290 00:12:48,639 --> 00:12:46,850 ation product of nylon so this 291 00:12:50,889 --> 00:12:48,649 contamination source should be entirely 292 00:12:52,329 --> 00:12:50,899 preventable and you can tell that it's 293 00:12:55,079 --> 00:12:52,339 eco because if you look on the 294 00:12:57,100 --> 00:12:55,089 fluorescence detection here you see a 295 00:12:58,900 --> 00:12:57,110 fluorescence peak and the way that these 296 00:13:02,949 --> 00:12:58,910 are derivatized it should be only that 297 00:13:03,129 --> 00:13:02,959 primary amino acids fluoresce and so you 298 00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:03,139 know 299 00:13:06,609 --> 00:13:04,970 it's an amino acid something with a 300 00:13:08,619 --> 00:13:06,619 primary amine and then when you look at 301 00:13:12,220 --> 00:13:08,629 the mass spectra you can see that it's 302 00:13:17,379 --> 00:13:12,230 of mass 393 and you run standards 303 00:13:20,319 --> 00:13:17,389 against that so i looked at eco 304 00:13:22,119 --> 00:13:20,329 contaminations and specifically as well 305 00:13:26,019 --> 00:13:22,129 as contaminations from a handful of 306 00:13:27,939 --> 00:13:26,029 other amino acids because as amino acids 307 00:13:29,859 --> 00:13:27,949 are incredibly important to find 308 00:13:31,629 --> 00:13:29,869 potential the origin of life in the homo 309 00:13:34,139 --> 00:13:31,639 chirality of amino acids is something 310 00:13:37,359 --> 00:13:34,149 that's specifically interesting to 311 00:13:40,599 --> 00:13:37,369 astrobiology and so there's 20 coated or 312 00:13:43,239 --> 00:13:40,609 pro tenacious amino acids and I think we 313 00:13:47,470 --> 00:13:43,249 looked at about 14 a mix of biological 314 00:13:49,479 --> 00:13:47,480 and non-biological amino acids and I 315 00:13:51,309 --> 00:13:49,489 look for these using liquid 316 00:13:53,799 --> 00:13:51,319 chromatography fluorescence section top 317 00:13:55,869 --> 00:13:53,809 ms and this is a schematic of the 318 00:13:58,090 --> 00:13:55,879 instrument that i use and so if you 319 00:14:01,119 --> 00:13:58,100 start down here in the bottom right this 320 00:14:03,669 --> 00:14:01,129 is the hplc injection site and so you 321 00:14:06,659 --> 00:14:03,679 inject your sample and it goes on to the 322 00:14:10,989 --> 00:14:06,669 column we used c18 columns so this is a 323 00:14:12,669 --> 00:14:10,999 reverse and then the sample actually 324 00:14:17,769 --> 00:14:12,679 went through the fluorescence detector 325 00:14:18,999 --> 00:14:17,779 and from the fluorescence to the top so 326 00:14:22,539 --> 00:14:19,009 from this instrument we were able to 327 00:14:27,999 --> 00:14:22,549 determine exactly which amino acids were 328 00:14:31,929 --> 00:14:28,009 in the samples so specifically I looked 329 00:14:35,019 --> 00:14:31,939 at these three bags fr to 176 a 73 73 330 00:14:40,059 --> 00:14:35,029 and a knf bag which is from the 331 00:14:42,340 --> 00:14:40,069 corporation ken ken lamb I think and so 332 00:14:44,019 --> 00:14:42,350 the way that I looked at these bags is I 333 00:14:45,850 --> 00:14:44,029 put a clean water samples in each of the 334 00:14:48,009 --> 00:14:45,860 bags and left those clean water samples 335 00:14:50,499 --> 00:14:48,019 for 24 hours the samples were then 336 00:14:52,090 --> 00:14:50,509 extracted and split and half the sample 337 00:14:54,429 --> 00:14:52,100 was hydrolyzed and half of it was not 338 00:14:57,129 --> 00:14:54,439 and then those samples were derivatized 339 00:15:01,059 --> 00:14:57,139 and analyzed with the liquid 340 00:15:05,739 --> 00:15:01,069 chromatograph so these are the 341 00:15:07,659 --> 00:15:05,749 chromatogram results and so in order to 342 00:15:09,579 --> 00:15:07,669 just point out that the chromatograms 343 00:15:12,549 --> 00:15:09,589 not spectra it it's time versus 344 00:15:15,519 --> 00:15:12,559 intensity and as you can see clearly 345 00:15:16,809 --> 00:15:15,529 that some bags had far far less 346 00:15:20,259 --> 00:15:16,819 contamination and other 347 00:15:21,939 --> 00:15:20,269 with the FR 2176 showing much less 348 00:15:25,569 --> 00:15:21,949 contamination particularly in the Eco 349 00:15:28,059 --> 00:15:25,579 amino acid it's also noteworthy that I 350 00:15:30,849 --> 00:15:28,069 analyzed the bag that the knf bag was 351 00:15:32,590 --> 00:15:30,859 packaged in because i was seeing nylon 352 00:15:34,259 --> 00:15:32,600 Peaks that are eeka Peaks that should 353 00:15:37,629 --> 00:15:34,269 not have been in the interior bag and 354 00:15:39,429 --> 00:15:37,639 when I analyzed that outer bag the all 355 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:39,439 these biological amino acids make sense 356 00:15:42,189 --> 00:15:40,850 since people were touching the bag and 357 00:15:44,769 --> 00:15:42,199 handling it not like it was going to be 358 00:15:47,650 --> 00:15:44,779 analyzed but there wasn't too much vika 359 00:15:49,389 --> 00:15:47,660 in it however we think that perhaps the 360 00:15:51,249 --> 00:15:49,399 interior bag was heat sealed into it and 361 00:15:54,639 --> 00:15:51,259 it-enabled contamination to be passed 362 00:15:56,409 --> 00:15:54,649 from the outer bag to the inner bag so 363 00:15:58,989 --> 00:15:56,419 these are quantitation of the 364 00:16:01,269 --> 00:15:58,999 qualitative results you just saw and if 365 00:16:02,529 --> 00:16:01,279 you look at the column on the left this 366 00:16:04,659 --> 00:16:02,539 is the bag that Ann's met was currently 367 00:16:06,579 --> 00:16:04,669 using they're using nylon bags which 368 00:16:10,889 --> 00:16:06,589 puts in huge huge amounts of eeka 369 00:16:16,779 --> 00:16:10,899 contamination and i think that the FR 370 00:16:19,569 --> 00:16:16,789 2176 bag which has only I think for four 371 00:16:22,029 --> 00:16:19,579 parts of four pika moles of 372 00:16:23,769 --> 00:16:22,039 contamination should be used instead and 373 00:16:25,359 --> 00:16:23,779 the reason that this would be a much 374 00:16:26,889 --> 00:16:25,369 better back to use is that this ikan 375 00:16:28,269 --> 00:16:26,899 contamination puts in a lot of extra 376 00:16:30,369 --> 00:16:28,279 carbons and nitrogens that would make it 377 00:16:32,859 --> 00:16:30,379 impossible to do isotope ratios on some 378 00:16:36,549 --> 00:16:32,869 of these meteorites and making it very 379 00:16:38,379 --> 00:16:36,559 difficult to determine origins so in 380 00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:38,389 summary contamination by eeka is 381 00:16:44,169 --> 00:16:40,850 preventable how the bag is packaged 382 00:16:45,849 --> 00:16:44,179 affects the bag and fr 2176 is a better 383 00:16:48,069 --> 00:16:45,859 bag for meteorite collection than what 384 00:16:52,029 --> 00:16:48,079 they're currently using and this is the 385 00:16:54,699 --> 00:16:52,039 FR 2176 bag on your right so i would 386 00:16:56,049 --> 00:16:54,709 like to thank jason Dorkin for being my 387 00:16:58,349 --> 00:16:56,059 mentor and helping me get acquainted 388 00:17:00,549 --> 00:16:58,359 with the instrument Danny Glavine for 389 00:17:03,699 --> 00:17:00,559 pretty much coming up with the bags and 390 00:17:06,100 --> 00:17:03,709 giving the bags to me Jamie uh I also 391 00:17:07,389 --> 00:17:06,110 cook Jim dou T and Milly Margaret 392 00:17:09,249 --> 00:17:07,399 showing me around the lab and helping me 393 00:17:10,899 --> 00:17:09,259 get used to the equipment heaven writer 394 00:17:13,569 --> 00:17:10,909 from Johnson Space Center for providing 395 00:17:15,009 --> 00:17:13,579 the bags wearing EV for organizing the 396 00:17:22,260 --> 00:17:15,019 internship and the nasa astrobiology 397 00:17:28,180 --> 00:17:24,280 don't think I'm never going to use those 398 00:17:33,850 --> 00:17:28,190 bags again yeah or any bags I'm gonna be 399 00:17:39,850 --> 00:17:33,860 doing what's that star desk Hey oh yeah 400 00:17:44,230 --> 00:17:39,860 oh alright ok any questions for for 401 00:17:46,090 --> 00:17:44,240 aerial or comments here at the center is 402 00:17:49,810 --> 00:17:46,100 there someone of someone on the far end 403 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:49,820 has a question I heard you yeah I was 404 00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:51,290 wondering if there was a cost between 405 00:17:55,150 --> 00:17:53,210 the bags that they're currently using 406 00:17:59,200 --> 00:17:55,160 and the bag that you suggesting would 407 00:18:00,580 --> 00:17:59,210 have less of an issue per bag and you 408 00:18:02,830 --> 00:18:00,590 think vanilla ones are more expensive I 409 00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:02,840 don't have a number i was pretty cheap i 410 00:18:07,750 --> 00:18:04,970 I don't have the numbers i could get 411 00:18:09,910 --> 00:18:07,760 back to you on that but honestly when 412 00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:09,920 you think about the preciousness of the 413 00:18:14,020 --> 00:18:10,970 samples it's probably worth the upgrade 414 00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:14,030 right I was just identified if you 415 00:18:19,030 --> 00:18:16,850 identify yourself please I'm Sasha 416 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:19,040 Afghan I'm an intern working here at 417 00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:23,330 NASA Ames thank you is there any plan to 418 00:18:28,120 --> 00:18:26,210 feed this stuff back to Kevin writer so 419 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:28,130 that they can plan appropriately for the 420 00:18:33,970 --> 00:18:30,650 next expedition he's already out here 421 00:18:37,810 --> 00:18:33,980 good they know what are what are these 422 00:18:41,410 --> 00:18:37,820 other bags made of the bag is made of I 423 00:18:43,270 --> 00:18:41,420 can go back the bag the good bag is made 424 00:18:46,060 --> 00:18:43,280 of polyester low-density polyethylene 425 00:18:48,670 --> 00:18:46,070 oil and polyethylene the bag are using 426 00:18:52,530 --> 00:18:48,680 right now is just Maryland did I guess 427 00:18:55,060 --> 00:18:52,540 none of these are teflon no Teflon I 428 00:18:57,250 --> 00:18:55,070 actually was run as well human and 429 00:18:59,230 --> 00:18:57,260 Teflon had fairly high contamination 430 00:19:01,300 --> 00:18:59,240 levels nowhere near as high as nylon but 431 00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:01,310 still out of the realm that you want to 432 00:19:10,970 --> 00:19:08,690 use it I'm just curious is there way to 433 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:10,980 know what other groups may be using them 434 00:19:15,500 --> 00:19:14,010 nylon bags and tell them about your 435 00:19:24,409 --> 00:19:15,510 results this is something that you guys 436 00:19:26,330 --> 00:19:24,419 do was about it no dick Danny just said 437 00:19:28,610 --> 00:19:26,340 that Jesse knows about it and I think it 438 00:19:30,140 --> 00:19:28,620 becomes pretty apparent if something has 439 00:19:31,850 --> 00:19:30,150 been in a nylon bag once you hydrolyze 440 00:19:33,230 --> 00:19:31,860 it like you see that peak all the time 441 00:19:39,140 --> 00:19:33,240 and it's absolutely huge compared to 442 00:19:41,390 --> 00:19:39,150 anything else so yeah there's a 443 00:19:42,770 --> 00:19:41,400 conference in march that i'm going to be 444 00:19:45,650 --> 00:19:42,780 doing a poster on about these results as 445 00:19:47,390 --> 00:19:45,660 well but i think it's fair sight think 446 00:19:50,120 --> 00:19:47,400 that the results of your research have 447 00:19:53,270 --> 00:19:50,130 really changed the protocol for a sample 448 00:19:55,100 --> 00:19:53,280 collection with your agent so very 449 00:19:59,240 --> 00:19:55,110 significant result thank you very much 450 00:20:02,630 --> 00:19:59,250 thank you ok we'll be right along we 451 00:20:04,789 --> 00:20:02,640 have Lauren Loudon who's a student at 452 00:20:07,370 --> 00:20:04,799 Keene State College he's been working 453 00:20:09,039 --> 00:20:07,380 with Richard Walker the geosciences 454 00:20:11,570 --> 00:20:09,049 Department the University of Maryland 455 00:20:13,490 --> 00:20:11,580 and working on lunar samples 456 00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:13,500 particularly with respect to the sadirah 457 00:20:19,610 --> 00:20:16,010 file elements and Osman isotopic 458 00:20:21,950 --> 00:20:19,620 isotopic systematics thank you dr. Lim 459 00:20:23,900 --> 00:20:21,960 away hi my name is Lauren Loudon I'm a 460 00:20:25,850 --> 00:20:23,910 student at Keene State College in New 461 00:20:27,620 --> 00:20:25,860 Hampshire and a second year intern here 462 00:20:30,169 --> 00:20:27,630 at the Goddard Center for astrobiology 463 00:20:32,750 --> 00:20:30,179 this summer I continued my work with dr. 464 00:20:34,700 --> 00:20:32,760 Mumma or sorry doctors Walker in which 465 00:20:36,980 --> 00:20:34,710 Attell characterizing the impactors of 466 00:20:39,020 --> 00:20:36,990 the late heavy bombardment using highly 467 00:20:40,820 --> 00:20:39,030 sideral file elements and osmium isotope 468 00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:40,830 systematics in the lunar impact melt 469 00:20:46,460 --> 00:20:44,730 breccia 760 55 the brecha 760 55 was 470 00:20:49,010 --> 00:20:46,470 collected from the saran atakus basin 471 00:20:50,690 --> 00:20:49,020 during the Apollo 17 mission so we're 472 00:20:52,220 --> 00:20:50,700 concerned with the composition of the 473 00:20:54,049 --> 00:20:52,230 impacting objects that were involved 474 00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:54,059 with the late heavy bombardment late 475 00:20:58,159 --> 00:20:56,010 heavy bombardment took place about 3.9 476 00:21:00,560 --> 00:20:58,169 billion years before present and it is a 477 00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:00,570 hypothesized as one of the delivering 478 00:21:04,820 --> 00:21:02,730 mechanisms for prebiotic organics and 479 00:21:07,070 --> 00:21:04,830 water to the earth however there is much 480 00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:07,080 controversy over the composition of 481 00:21:13,159 --> 00:21:09,330 these objects and we're in the solar 482 00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:13,169 system these objects form lunar impact 483 00:21:17,060 --> 00:21:14,850 melt wretches are essentially 484 00:21:19,669 --> 00:21:17,070 fingerprints of the 3.9 Giga annum 485 00:21:22,130 --> 00:21:19,679 impactors a lunar impact melt breccia is 486 00:21:23,870 --> 00:21:22,140 composed of fragments of the lunar crust 487 00:21:24,169 --> 00:21:23,880 whatever else is contained in the lunar 488 00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:24,179 cross 489 00:21:28,879 --> 00:21:26,850 and melt from the impacting object this 490 00:21:30,769 --> 00:21:28,889 process retains the signatures of some 491 00:21:32,239 --> 00:21:30,779 elements the highly sideral file 492 00:21:34,279 --> 00:21:32,249 elements which include rhenium osmium 493 00:21:36,710 --> 00:21:34,289 iridium ruthenium platinum and palladium 494 00:21:38,989 --> 00:21:36,720 are the easiest to discern given their 495 00:21:41,180 --> 00:21:38,999 geochemical nature the highly sideral 496 00:21:43,519 --> 00:21:41,190 file elements prefer the metal phase 497 00:21:45,350 --> 00:21:43,529 over the silicate phase so upon core 498 00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:45,360 formation they're nearly quantitatively 499 00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:47,369 removed from the silicate portions of 500 00:21:52,399 --> 00:21:50,330 the earth we can then take our or our 501 00:21:54,289 --> 00:21:52,409 isotopic data from some of our highly 502 00:21:56,989 --> 00:21:54,299 sideral file elements and the highly 503 00:22:00,850 --> 00:21:56,999 sideral file element ratios and plot 504 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:00,860 them comparing the values to other 505 00:22:07,580 --> 00:22:03,450 chondrites and lunar impact melts or 506 00:22:09,350 --> 00:22:07,590 other samples we analyze seven 507 00:22:12,470 --> 00:22:09,360 additional 40 to 200 milligrams 508 00:22:14,239 --> 00:22:12,480 subsamples of the brecha 760 55 by 509 00:22:15,830 --> 00:22:14,249 taking whole rock chunks and doing a 510 00:22:17,690 --> 00:22:15,840 high pressure temperature digestion on 511 00:22:19,730 --> 00:22:17,700 them we then measure the highly sideral 512 00:22:21,859 --> 00:22:19,740 file element concentrations by isotope 513 00:22:23,899 --> 00:22:21,869 dilution techniques using thermal 514 00:22:25,609 --> 00:22:23,909 ionization mass spectrometry and 515 00:22:29,060 --> 00:22:25,619 inductively coupled plasma mass 516 00:22:31,940 --> 00:22:29,070 spectrometry here we have a plot of 517 00:22:33,529 --> 00:22:31,950 iridium in parts per billion versus the 518 00:22:35,509 --> 00:22:33,539 other highly sideral file elements in 519 00:22:38,139 --> 00:22:35,519 parts per billion for some reason my 520 00:22:40,820 --> 00:22:38,149 y-axis is cut off I'm sorry about that 521 00:22:44,060 --> 00:22:40,830 usually in the past these graphs have 522 00:22:46,100 --> 00:22:44,070 been interpreted to mean two component 523 00:22:48,889 --> 00:22:46,110 mixing between a low highly sideral file 524 00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:48,899 and many a member component and a highly 525 00:22:52,639 --> 00:22:51,090 sideral file and member component the 526 00:22:54,799 --> 00:22:52,649 low end member component would be 527 00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:54,809 considered the lunar crust and the high 528 00:22:59,090 --> 00:22:56,730 hi Lisa Toro file and member the 529 00:23:02,539 --> 00:22:59,100 impacting object the slopes of the lines 530 00:23:04,669 --> 00:23:02,549 would then equal the ratio of a highly 531 00:23:07,310 --> 00:23:04,679 sideral file elements to iridium in the 532 00:23:09,409 --> 00:23:07,320 impacting object and the y-intercepts 533 00:23:11,090 --> 00:23:09,419 would equal the contribution of the 534 00:23:13,580 --> 00:23:11,100 target component so what's already in 535 00:23:15,769 --> 00:23:13,590 the lunar crust as you can see here what 536 00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:15,779 is very interesting is we have nonzero 537 00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:17,970 intercepts and palladium platinum and 538 00:23:22,580 --> 00:23:20,369 ruthenium this is unlike any other 539 00:23:24,379 --> 00:23:22,590 impact melt breccia we have seen in this 540 00:23:26,389 --> 00:23:24,389 high of a concentration and if we 541 00:23:28,669 --> 00:23:26,399 compare these values to pristine lunar 542 00:23:30,769 --> 00:23:28,679 rocks they usually have highly sideral 543 00:23:33,349 --> 00:23:30,779 file element concentrations in parts per 544 00:23:35,629 --> 00:23:33,359 trillion here's a comparison to the 545 00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:35,639 Apollo 14 breccia one four three two one 546 00:23:40,820 --> 00:23:37,410 analyzed by put stella 547 00:23:42,950 --> 00:23:40,830 on 2008 and we can see that within the 548 00:23:45,410 --> 00:23:42,960 uncertainty of our regression analysis 549 00:23:49,430 --> 00:23:45,420 the intercepts would be statistically 550 00:23:53,120 --> 00:23:49,440 unresolvable from zero here we have a 551 00:23:54,890 --> 00:23:53,130 plot of 187 osmium over 188 osmium 552 00:23:58,730 --> 00:23:54,900 versus what would be palladium and 553 00:24:01,070 --> 00:23:58,740 iridium the 187 osmium to 188 osmium 554 00:24:03,410 --> 00:24:01,080 ratio is a good proxy for the 187 555 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:03,420 rhenium to 188 osmium ratio in the 556 00:24:09,110 --> 00:24:06,210 impacting object the X error bars here 557 00:24:12,500 --> 00:24:09,120 actually represent the range of 187 558 00:24:14,540 --> 00:24:12,510 osmium to 188 osmium in the sample the Y 559 00:24:17,300 --> 00:24:14,550 error bars would represent two sigma 560 00:24:19,700 --> 00:24:17,310 error from the regression analysis in 561 00:24:22,070 --> 00:24:19,710 the past we would have interpreted this 562 00:24:23,930 --> 00:24:22,080 beretta as diverging from the gnome 563 00:24:25,550 --> 00:24:23,940 chondritic groups which are plotted here 564 00:24:28,790 --> 00:24:25,560 we have ordinary enstatite and 565 00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:28,800 carbonaceous it would be plotting 566 00:24:31,910 --> 00:24:30,210 diverging from the gnome contracted 567 00:24:33,140 --> 00:24:31,920 groups but maybe overlapping within 568 00:24:35,360 --> 00:24:33,150 uncertainty with some of the 569 00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:35,370 carbonaceous however what I'll show you 570 00:24:40,850 --> 00:24:38,610 is that might not be usable here here we 571 00:24:43,850 --> 00:24:40,860 have a plot of 187 rhenium versus over 572 00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:43,860 188 osmium versus our osmium isotopic 573 00:24:49,370 --> 00:24:46,650 composition 187 osmium over 188 osmium 574 00:24:51,020 --> 00:24:49,380 this plot defines or you can see there 575 00:24:53,120 --> 00:24:51,030 is a correlation Oh loose correlation 576 00:24:55,330 --> 00:24:53,130 between the two isotopic compositions 577 00:24:58,040 --> 00:24:55,340 and this would traditionally define a 578 00:25:01,130 --> 00:24:58,050 isochron here I plotted for reference to 579 00:25:04,010 --> 00:25:01,140 4.55 Giga annum isochron and the 3.85 580 00:25:06,500 --> 00:25:04,020 Giga oh my so kromm when we age correct 581 00:25:09,890 --> 00:25:06,510 this data back to the three point eight 582 00:25:12,050 --> 00:25:09,900 five billion year impact we can see on a 583 00:25:15,110 --> 00:25:12,060 plot of osmium in parts per billion 584 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:15,120 versus our osmium isotopic composition 585 00:25:21,790 --> 00:25:19,410 at 3.85 Giga annum that the isotopic 586 00:25:25,340 --> 00:25:21,800 composition has evolved from a 587 00:25:27,110 --> 00:25:25,350 isotopically uniform reservoir this is 588 00:25:29,390 --> 00:25:27,120 also a very unique thing to the spread 589 00:25:31,070 --> 00:25:29,400 show so we need to know why are there 590 00:25:32,990 --> 00:25:31,080 these large ranges in our reading of 591 00:25:35,300 --> 00:25:33,000 osmium and highly sideral file element 592 00:25:37,370 --> 00:25:35,310 ratios there are two possibilities the 593 00:25:40,130 --> 00:25:37,380 first being two component mixing between 594 00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:40,140 an impactor and the lunar crust to have 595 00:25:43,220 --> 00:25:41,730 this occur we need rhenium to 596 00:25:45,620 --> 00:25:43,230 fractionate from osmium during the 597 00:25:47,330 --> 00:25:45,630 impact and our other highly sideral file 598 00:25:49,940 --> 00:25:47,340 elements to fractionate from iridium 599 00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:49,950 there is a possibility of volatility 600 00:25:53,029 --> 00:25:50,970 here but 601 00:25:55,310 --> 00:25:53,039 we have reducing conditions under impact 602 00:25:58,610 --> 00:25:55,320 and it requires temperatures in excess 603 00:26:01,610 --> 00:25:58,620 of 3,000 k to fractionate or to melt 604 00:26:03,380 --> 00:26:01,620 rhenium the other option is three 605 00:26:05,330 --> 00:26:03,390 component mixing between a pre Serrano 606 00:26:07,669 --> 00:26:05,340 tates impactor the surrender thought is 607 00:26:09,830 --> 00:26:07,679 impactor and the lunar crust in this 608 00:26:11,870 --> 00:26:09,840 case the only requirement as that 22 609 00:26:14,390 --> 00:26:11,880 impactors have different rhenium osmium 610 00:26:18,020 --> 00:26:14,400 ratios and highly sideral file element 611 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:18,030 ratios here i have a plot of what is 612 00:26:25,250 --> 00:26:20,970 iridium versus palladium and I this is 613 00:26:28,250 --> 00:26:25,260 just a schematic already may take two 614 00:26:30,649 --> 00:26:28,260 impactors to generate nonzero intercepts 615 00:26:32,659 --> 00:26:30,659 by mixing the two impactors and the 616 00:26:34,970 --> 00:26:32,669 lunar crust so almost three component 617 00:26:36,289 --> 00:26:34,980 mixing and there you see the surrender 618 00:26:38,120 --> 00:26:36,299 thought is impactor the priests Aranda 619 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:38,130 thought is impactor and the mixing line 620 00:26:41,570 --> 00:26:39,210 which would give us the nonzero 621 00:26:43,399 --> 00:26:41,580 intercept these lines are exaggerated so 622 00:26:46,220 --> 00:26:43,409 this is not an accurate model of the 623 00:26:49,130 --> 00:26:46,230 impacting ratios and here for reference 624 00:26:52,130 --> 00:26:49,140 I plotted the Palladium values from the 625 00:26:53,899 --> 00:26:52,140 breccia 760 55 and you can see that this 626 00:26:56,570 --> 00:26:53,909 is one way that we might be able to 627 00:27:01,220 --> 00:26:56,580 evolve nonzero intercepts in the lunar 628 00:27:03,289 --> 00:27:01,230 trust in conclusion 760 55 is a very 629 00:27:05,539 --> 00:27:03,299 unique breccia where platinum palladium 630 00:27:07,970 --> 00:27:05,549 and Rossini Amal have nonzero intercepts 631 00:27:09,950 --> 00:27:07,980 on plot versus iridium there is a range 632 00:27:12,169 --> 00:27:09,960 of osmium composition which reflects 633 00:27:14,450 --> 00:27:12,179 variable rhenium osmium in the material 634 00:27:16,700 --> 00:27:14,460 palladium iridium platinum iridium and 635 00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:16,710 ruthenium iridium ratios are much more 636 00:27:22,310 --> 00:27:18,570 variable than in other lunar impact melt 637 00:27:24,350 --> 00:27:22,320 wretches the easiest you know conclusion 638 00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:24,360 to invoke that would result in all this 639 00:27:28,310 --> 00:27:26,490 is three component mixing between the 640 00:27:29,810 --> 00:27:28,320 serrano tates impactor a priest Aranda 641 00:27:31,940 --> 00:27:29,820 thought us impactor and the lunar crust 642 00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:31,950 but it's also we should note that there 643 00:27:36,020 --> 00:27:33,690 is a possibility for two component 644 00:27:38,510 --> 00:27:36,030 mixing but the situations that would 645 00:27:41,899 --> 00:27:38,520 need to result to have it give us the 646 00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:41,909 data that we see are much harder I just 647 00:27:46,730 --> 00:27:44,490 like to acknowledge dr. Mumma and Cory 648 00:27:48,799 --> 00:27:46,740 everybody else at the Goddard Center for 649 00:27:50,570 --> 00:27:48,809 astrobiology and the isotope 650 00:27:53,779 --> 00:27:50,580 geochemistry lab at the university of 651 00:28:00,889 --> 00:27:53,789 maryland thank you guys very much 652 00:28:02,719 --> 00:28:00,899 oh I was actually kind of itchy to go 653 00:28:05,210 --> 00:28:02,729 back to that one slide where you show 654 00:28:11,090 --> 00:28:05,220 the Iridium isotopic ratios versatility 655 00:28:13,549 --> 00:28:11,100 of the palladium iridium abundance ratio 656 00:28:16,729 --> 00:28:13,559 it's dead right there that kind of looks 657 00:28:20,239 --> 00:28:16,739 like you've got two distinct families of 658 00:28:21,979 --> 00:28:20,249 points on that chart is that just my 659 00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:21,989 eyeballs getting older zit is it 660 00:28:26,060 --> 00:28:24,570 possible it's real pay tithing etho I 661 00:28:29,839 --> 00:28:26,070 mean that this two different slopes 662 00:28:32,629 --> 00:28:29,849 almost like two different slopes I can 663 00:28:35,210 --> 00:28:32,639 sort of say once one one set of data 664 00:28:36,710 --> 00:28:35,220 coming through here for example one 665 00:28:39,619 --> 00:28:36,720 mixing line and then another one which 666 00:28:41,839 --> 00:28:39,629 is displaced from back up here well I 667 00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:41,849 think what we're having kind of problems 668 00:28:47,749 --> 00:28:45,330 look now is that if if we have more than 669 00:28:50,029 --> 00:28:47,759 two component mixing these might not be 670 00:28:52,430 --> 00:28:50,039 appropriate graphs to use to show a 671 00:28:54,739 --> 00:28:52,440 mixing mixing trend and I would actually 672 00:28:57,889 --> 00:28:54,749 have to ask dr. Walker if this would 673 00:28:59,869 --> 00:28:57,899 even be an appropriate graph to show a 674 00:29:03,580 --> 00:28:59,879 two component or um you know different 675 00:29:05,450 --> 00:29:03,590 mixing trends on you know I know like 676 00:29:07,729 --> 00:29:05,460 traditionally or in the past we would 677 00:29:10,299 --> 00:29:07,739 show to show like a good mixing wine we 678 00:29:13,039 --> 00:29:10,309 would plot osmium concentration versus 679 00:29:15,950 --> 00:29:13,049 osmium isotopic composition and that 680 00:29:17,479 --> 00:29:15,960 would give us a nice mixing trend so he 681 00:29:19,159 --> 00:29:17,489 can generate about ten of these 682 00:29:22,580 --> 00:29:19,169 different plots are different clan yeah 683 00:29:25,580 --> 00:29:22,590 yeah some of the apparent correlation to 684 00:29:28,460 --> 00:29:25,590 go away in our figures okay let me go to 685 00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:28,470 our remote sites and ask dependent any 686 00:29:39,669 --> 00:29:33,450 questions out there ok any questions 687 00:29:46,070 --> 00:29:42,730 right thank you very much long thank you 688 00:29:47,419 --> 00:29:46,080 question so you are now admitted to 689 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:47,429 university of elephant albums that i 690 00:29:55,870 --> 00:29:49,770 admitted he had quit no matter what most 691 00:30:00,230 --> 00:29:58,730 now rich rich walker just advised me 692 00:30:02,659 --> 00:30:00,240 privately he's not about to let him out 693 00:30:05,330 --> 00:30:02,669 for vacation until he completes what 694 00:30:09,159 --> 00:30:05,340 publication the application application 695 00:30:12,950 --> 00:30:09,169 i see the application our next speaker 696 00:30:16,639 --> 00:30:12,960 texas from the realm of meteoritic sand 697 00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:16,649 lunar samples to the realm of our sister 698 00:30:23,450 --> 00:30:20,250 planet mars where she has been looking 699 00:30:27,590 --> 00:30:23,460 at the search for signatures of carbon 700 00:30:29,029 --> 00:30:27,600 and life not Nadia rod otha from 701 00:30:31,519 --> 00:30:29,039 Connecticut College has been working 702 00:30:33,919 --> 00:30:31,529 with Geronimo Villanueva here at Goddard 703 00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:33,929 on high-resolution spectroscopy of Mars 704 00:30:37,669 --> 00:30:36,570 not you hi my name is investor aadhavan 705 00:30:39,500 --> 00:30:37,679 this summer I worked in the 706 00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:39,510 high-resolution spectral survey of my 707 00:30:43,430 --> 00:30:41,250 city infrared wavelengths and I searched 708 00:30:45,769 --> 00:30:43,440 for signatures of life as an 709 00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:45,779 introduction before 1970s there were 710 00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:47,850 very few observations of Mars Dan and 711 00:30:54,049 --> 00:30:51,330 here i am showing um a spectrum is an 712 00:30:57,980 --> 00:30:54,059 example of a spectrum that was obtained 713 00:30:59,960 --> 00:30:57,990 in 1963 and along the x-axis i've 714 00:31:02,539 --> 00:30:59,970 plotted the wavelength in micrometers 715 00:31:05,539 --> 00:31:02,549 and along the y-axis is the resolving 716 00:31:07,460 --> 00:31:05,549 power before 1970s most of the 717 00:31:09,649 --> 00:31:07,470 observations with them were done with 718 00:31:13,460 --> 00:31:09,659 the resolving power of lower than 10,000 719 00:31:16,340 --> 00:31:13,470 like this observation here done it 300 720 00:31:19,370 --> 00:31:16,350 the resolving power and that's why on 721 00:31:22,810 --> 00:31:19,380 the spectrum of things showed only very 722 00:31:25,090 --> 00:31:22,820 bright co2 whines but no week features 723 00:31:27,399 --> 00:31:25,100 in the new millennium more and more 724 00:31:29,450 --> 00:31:27,409 observations were done with your 725 00:31:31,940 --> 00:31:29,460 instruments with the resolving power 726 00:31:34,419 --> 00:31:31,950 higher than 10,000 and that's why 727 00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:34,429 scientists were able to identify week 728 00:31:39,980 --> 00:31:38,250 molecules of carbon monoxide methane HDL 729 00:31:43,490 --> 00:31:39,990 and other molecules that are relevant 730 00:31:45,289 --> 00:31:43,500 for the search of life on Mars the data 731 00:31:47,269 --> 00:31:45,299 analyzed this summer was taken within 732 00:31:49,250 --> 00:31:47,279 their spec spectrometer at CAC tool and 733 00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:49,260 it's a spectrometer with the resolving 734 00:31:55,620 --> 00:31:51,370 power for 40,000 and 735 00:32:00,090 --> 00:31:55,630 if it has three really wide regions at 736 00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:00,100 the infrared center around 1.3 3.3 and 5 737 00:32:05,850 --> 00:32:03,370 microns due to the fact that the range 738 00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:05,860 is really large and the resulting powers 739 00:32:11,910 --> 00:32:09,970 hi the area under every region is very 740 00:32:15,630 --> 00:32:11,920 large and this means that we can detect 741 00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:15,640 so many weak lines and retrieve for very 742 00:32:20,310 --> 00:32:17,530 precise abundances of the molecules 743 00:32:24,180 --> 00:32:20,320 observed this is an example of the 744 00:32:26,940 --> 00:32:24,190 dispatcher we observe and x2 the fact 745 00:32:28,860 --> 00:32:26,950 that the resolving power is 40,000 we 746 00:32:32,460 --> 00:32:28,870 can observe many weak lines of carbon 747 00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:32,470 dioxide and even we can revise lines in 748 00:32:38,549 --> 00:32:35,530 between in contrast to the same spectrum 749 00:32:41,250 --> 00:32:38,559 taken in 1963 with the law resolving 750 00:32:44,850 --> 00:32:41,260 power showed no such lines in only very 751 00:32:46,740 --> 00:32:44,860 bright lines the data analyzes summer 752 00:32:49,110 --> 00:32:46,750 was taken with inner spec spectrometer 753 00:32:51,860 --> 00:32:49,120 at capturing Hawaii and all the data is 754 00:32:54,990 --> 00:32:51,870 taken along a slit positioned along Mars 755 00:32:57,540 --> 00:32:55,000 spanning from north to south and all 756 00:32:59,790 --> 00:32:57,550 data comes in images like this where 757 00:33:02,070 --> 00:32:59,800 every order is a spectrum a different 758 00:33:06,150 --> 00:33:02,080 wavelength and it's Ben's from north to 759 00:33:08,580 --> 00:33:06,160 south along the slit all the spectra 760 00:33:10,700 --> 00:33:08,590 contain terrestrial Martian and solar 761 00:33:12,690 --> 00:33:10,710 lines and my task this summer was to 762 00:33:14,490 --> 00:33:12,700 remove with the restaurant solar 763 00:33:18,510 --> 00:33:14,500 alliance in order to obtain only the 764 00:33:21,270 --> 00:33:18,520 Martian lines the data that analyzed 765 00:33:24,990 --> 00:33:21,280 this taken on March 21st in March 22nd 766 00:33:27,380 --> 00:33:25,000 2003 the four of the nurse Peck settings 767 00:33:30,900 --> 00:33:27,390 within respect through setting 768 00:33:32,730 --> 00:33:30,910 identified water carbon dioxide and all 769 00:33:35,370 --> 00:33:32,740 the single Delta molecules as well as 770 00:33:39,060 --> 00:33:35,380 solar lines the egg white setting center 771 00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:39,070 around five microns showed carbon 772 00:33:44,850 --> 00:33:40,770 dioxide water and carbon monoxide 773 00:33:47,210 --> 00:33:44,860 molecules the k1 and k2 settings are 774 00:33:50,850 --> 00:33:47,220 important because they include a 775 00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:50,860 wavelength of 3.3 which is the other 776 00:33:56,370 --> 00:33:53,890 here and in these settings we can 777 00:33:57,990 --> 00:33:56,380 observe many hydrocarbons which are 778 00:34:01,980 --> 00:33:58,000 relevant for the search of life on Mars 779 00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:01,990 in any biomarkers and mice in order to 780 00:34:06,830 --> 00:34:03,730 process inspector I used 781 00:34:10,260 --> 00:34:06,840 so programs developed here the gutter 782 00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:10,270 astrobiology Center for data processing 783 00:34:15,390 --> 00:34:13,330 I organized and corrupted all the orders 784 00:34:16,860 --> 00:34:15,400 of interest Queen bad pitch that bad 785 00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:16,870 pixels and straightened the other 786 00:34:21,330 --> 00:34:19,450 spatial and spectral e and after that i 787 00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:21,340 calibrated the frames and score the 788 00:34:26,910 --> 00:34:24,370 results of with the residual analysis I 789 00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:26,920 the program led me to find the observing 790 00:34:31,980 --> 00:34:29,170 geometry to calculate local atmospheric 791 00:34:33,510 --> 00:34:31,990 conditions and extract Martian residuals 792 00:34:38,190 --> 00:34:33,520 as well as the molecular column 793 00:34:40,500 --> 00:34:38,200 densities after all my work of the 794 00:34:43,020 --> 00:34:40,510 summer I plotted all spectra and graph 795 00:34:45,330 --> 00:34:43,030 like this where along the x-axis I 796 00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:45,340 plotted the frequency must rest frame 797 00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:47,530 and the y-axis is the normalized 798 00:34:52,470 --> 00:34:50,410 absorption spectrum in blackpool here I 799 00:34:55,770 --> 00:34:52,480 show the observed spectrum that contains 800 00:34:58,410 --> 00:34:55,780 Martian terrestrial and solar wines red 801 00:35:00,840 --> 00:34:58,420 is the model of the terrestrial lines 802 00:35:03,930 --> 00:35:00,850 videos for the program and when the two 803 00:35:06,750 --> 00:35:03,940 are subtracted you receive the residual 804 00:35:10,170 --> 00:35:06,760 or these are marginalized as well or 805 00:35:12,990 --> 00:35:10,180 solar lines here on this order I 806 00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:13,000 identified carbon dioxide carbon dioxide 807 00:35:18,650 --> 00:35:15,370 to a branch as well as water molecules 808 00:35:23,340 --> 00:35:18,660 and solar Alliance and so for all orders 809 00:35:28,470 --> 00:35:23,350 identified with the type of each solar 810 00:35:30,570 --> 00:35:28,480 line observe I also confirmed them I'm 811 00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:30,580 you co2 band at my mentor here on 812 00:35:36,300 --> 00:35:33,610 overland I ever found and the new lines 813 00:35:38,450 --> 00:35:36,310 are plotted in red it's important for us 814 00:35:40,980 --> 00:35:38,460 to identify unknown features because 815 00:35:43,790 --> 00:35:40,990 they'll let scientists not mistake 816 00:35:48,990 --> 00:35:43,800 carbon dioxide with methane or other 817 00:35:51,270 --> 00:35:49,000 reclines better biomarkers these are two 818 00:35:53,910 --> 00:35:51,280 orders so that I used to retrieve water 819 00:35:56,670 --> 00:35:53,920 and auto single Delta balances on Mars 820 00:35:58,830 --> 00:35:56,680 the order here shows very bright water 821 00:36:01,530 --> 00:35:58,840 alliance and this is Georgia that has 822 00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:01,540 the greatest abundance of auto single 823 00:36:07,350 --> 00:36:04,450 Delta on Mars and this is the plot that 824 00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:07,360 I created so on the x-axis is the 825 00:36:12,860 --> 00:36:09,850 latitude of Marcin degrees and the 826 00:36:15,849 --> 00:36:12,870 y-axis is the molecular line intensity 827 00:36:16,749 --> 00:36:15,859 employ florida water vapor which is 828 00:36:19,089 --> 00:36:16,759 very high in the northern hemisphere 829 00:36:22,569 --> 00:36:19,099 because the data was taken at the time 830 00:36:26,470 --> 00:36:22,579 when it was late summer on Mars and auto 831 00:36:29,109 --> 00:36:26,480 single Delta is quoted in red all the 832 00:36:31,539 --> 00:36:29,119 single Delta is important because it is 833 00:36:36,849 --> 00:36:31,549 a sign of the existence of awesome 834 00:36:39,819 --> 00:36:36,859 because after the fall after Collins 835 00:36:43,210 --> 00:36:39,829 hits the ozone is falsifying 202 single 836 00:36:46,450 --> 00:36:43,220 Delta in a photo at one point 27 Mike 837 00:36:48,700 --> 00:36:46,460 Ross is emitted and the pot here shows 838 00:36:50,950 --> 00:36:48,710 the expected anti correlation between 839 00:36:53,950 --> 00:36:50,960 water vapor and mice and no two single 840 00:36:56,380 --> 00:36:53,960 Delta online and I would like to thank 841 00:36:58,630 --> 00:36:56,390 the goddess Center for astrobiology dr. 842 00:37:09,160 --> 00:36:58,640 mobile my mentor dr. Villanueva Corey 843 00:37:11,289 --> 00:37:09,170 Navy and all summer in terms thank you 844 00:37:14,979 --> 00:37:11,299 very much not yet I wanted to ask you 845 00:37:17,859 --> 00:37:14,989 briefly is a great deal of information I 846 00:37:19,870 --> 00:37:17,869 want to ask you in your opinion what is 847 00:37:27,400 --> 00:37:19,880 the most valuable thing you learn this 848 00:37:29,620 --> 00:37:27,410 song I think how to process all the 849 00:37:34,059 --> 00:37:29,630 spectra and how to retrieve all Martian 850 00:37:36,999 --> 00:37:34,069 wise and how to remove all that the rest 851 00:37:38,769 --> 00:37:37,009 feel and solar lines that we observe 852 00:37:41,710 --> 00:37:38,779 from the earth atmosphere because kept 853 00:37:43,269 --> 00:37:41,720 is a personal space telescope you have a 854 00:37:45,789 --> 00:37:43,279 lot of contamination from the Earth's 855 00:37:47,799 --> 00:37:45,799 atmosphere you can still very satisfied 856 00:37:51,700 --> 00:37:47,809 with the gun because this is a great 857 00:37:54,849 --> 00:37:51,710 challenge to do this so well anyone else 858 00:37:59,680 --> 00:37:54,859 your wish to Ashford how do you extract 859 00:38:02,470 --> 00:37:59,690 the Mars rest frame correction you have 860 00:38:05,109 --> 00:38:02,480 an X accessing Mars best yes we use the 861 00:38:08,859 --> 00:38:05,119 Doppler shift and to be correct all the 862 00:38:10,660 --> 00:38:08,869 lines for the Doppler shift so which 863 00:38:15,579 --> 00:38:10,670 direction is a red shifted or blue 864 00:38:19,779 --> 00:38:15,589 shifted oh not fair nice minus 15 865 00:38:22,020 --> 00:38:19,789 kilometer for this that's based on 866 00:38:23,940 --> 00:38:22,030 comparison with the rest frequencies 867 00:38:27,390 --> 00:38:23,950 for non lines such as water vapor in 868 00:38:30,150 --> 00:38:27,400 soil did you look at all at the 869 00:38:32,430 --> 00:38:30,160 hydrocarbon variance with latitude like 870 00:38:38,460 --> 00:38:32,440 you did with water and no I feel sorry 871 00:38:45,810 --> 00:38:38,470 for water notes it's angled ok any 872 00:38:51,510 --> 00:38:45,820 questions the remote sites okay thank 873 00:38:54,630 --> 00:38:51,520 you very much our next speaker is Lily 874 00:38:56,460 --> 00:38:54,640 rains student at Eckerd College she's 875 00:38:59,130 --> 00:38:56,470 working here this summer with marla more 876 00:39:01,590 --> 00:38:59,140 on issues related to the carbon 877 00:39:06,180 --> 00:39:01,600 structure chemistry and spectroscopy of 878 00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:06,190 frozen methane good afternoon my name is 879 00:39:09,870 --> 00:39:08,170 Lily rains and as dr. rumah said I 880 00:39:13,260 --> 00:39:09,880 studied the structure chemistry and 881 00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:13,270 spectroscopy of frozen epic one of the 882 00:39:16,710 --> 00:39:15,010 reasons that FN is so interesting is 883 00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:16,720 because it is found in a wide variety of 884 00:39:21,540 --> 00:39:19,810 solar bodies in the solar system it's 885 00:39:23,550 --> 00:39:21,550 been found on titan and on many transit 886 00:39:25,980 --> 00:39:23,560 union objects for examples with under 887 00:39:28,170 --> 00:39:25,990 Oort cloud comets count ukitake which is 888 00:39:32,100 --> 00:39:28,180 shown here on the right on Pluto lower 889 00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:32,110 and 2005 FY men I spectrum from 2005 at 890 00:39:36,300 --> 00:39:34,450 19 take it in the near-ir that shows the 891 00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:36,310 presence of ethane is shown here these 892 00:39:39,960 --> 00:39:38,890 three peaks are distinctive of ethane in 893 00:39:42,240 --> 00:39:39,970 addition ethane form from the 894 00:39:43,740 --> 00:39:42,250 irradiation of methane which is abundant 895 00:39:45,870 --> 00:39:43,750 throughout the solar system therefore 896 00:39:48,690 --> 00:39:45,880 it's reasonable to believe that we could 897 00:39:50,460 --> 00:39:48,700 potentially detect methane in where any 898 00:39:52,980 --> 00:39:50,470 location where you can find methane as 899 00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:52,990 opposed to radiation in addition most a 900 00:39:56,610 --> 00:39:54,610 values that are currently used to relate 901 00:39:58,350 --> 00:39:56,620 peak intensity to the number of 902 00:40:00,000 --> 00:39:58,360 molecules in a given set for ethane are 903 00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:00,010 based on crystal and ethane only and 904 00:40:05,310 --> 00:40:01,810 there have been very few investigation 905 00:40:06,270 --> 00:40:05,320 to Athens behavior in the near-ir this 906 00:40:08,550 --> 00:40:06,280 data would be particularly useful 907 00:40:11,490 --> 00:40:08,560 because the near-ir generally does not 908 00:40:13,980 --> 00:40:11,500 suffer as much interference from Earth's 909 00:40:15,330 --> 00:40:13,990 atmosphere and therefore her face 910 00:40:18,950 --> 00:40:15,340 observatories can use this data to 911 00:40:21,390 --> 00:40:18,960 ethane and other bodies we studied the 912 00:40:23,790 --> 00:40:21,400 properties of ethane under changing 913 00:40:25,410 --> 00:40:23,800 temperatures and radiation doses this 914 00:40:27,720 --> 00:40:25,420 summer we did this by forming ice 915 00:40:29,490 --> 00:40:27,730 samples by condensing gases on to a 916 00:40:32,100 --> 00:40:29,500 small substrate that was cool to the 917 00:40:33,630 --> 00:40:32,110 desired temperature as seen here we 918 00:40:35,579 --> 00:40:33,640 typically deposited our ethane ices 919 00:40:37,650 --> 00:40:35,589 around 10 to 60 Calvin 920 00:40:39,870 --> 00:40:37,660 and we took ir spectra periodically 921 00:40:41,099 --> 00:40:39,880 during our ice formation and while 922 00:40:43,410 --> 00:40:41,109 changing the temperature and radiation 923 00:40:45,599 --> 00:40:43,420 dose our radiation was in the form of 924 00:40:47,969 --> 00:40:45,609 accelerated protons generated by a Van 925 00:40:50,359 --> 00:40:47,979 de Graaff accelerated shown below is a 926 00:40:52,109 --> 00:40:50,369 typical spectrum of amorphous effing 927 00:40:54,989 --> 00:40:52,119 highlighted are the regions in the 928 00:40:56,849 --> 00:40:54,999 near-ir from about 4,500 to 4,000 929 00:40:58,249 --> 00:40:56,859 reciprocal centimeters these bands are 930 00:41:01,620 --> 00:40:58,259 very weak but they're very distinctive 931 00:41:03,559 --> 00:41:01,630 mention here are the peaks and 1460 932 00:41:06,509 --> 00:41:03,569 reciprocal centimeters in the mid I are 933 00:41:08,519 --> 00:41:06,519 the peaks of the mid-ir were much more 934 00:41:10,529 --> 00:41:08,529 cleanly separated and much stronger than 935 00:41:11,940 --> 00:41:10,539 those in the near hair because these 936 00:41:14,880 --> 00:41:11,950 peaks were clear we were able to 937 00:41:19,049 --> 00:41:14,890 determine a values for metastable and 938 00:41:21,180 --> 00:41:19,059 amorphous ethane ices a values in this 939 00:41:24,299 --> 00:41:21,190 case refers to a way to relate peak 940 00:41:26,339 --> 00:41:24,309 intensity to the thickness of a sample 941 00:41:28,499 --> 00:41:26,349 or the number of molecules present to 942 00:41:29,999 --> 00:41:28,509 this we measured how band area increased 943 00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:30,009 with the increase in thickness of a nice 944 00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:32,890 and this data is shown here with band 945 00:41:36,930 --> 00:41:35,650 area across relative thickness for four 946 00:41:39,150 --> 00:41:36,940 different bands and metastable I think 947 00:41:40,739 --> 00:41:39,160 and these values are shown here these 948 00:41:44,729 --> 00:41:40,749 same calculations were done for amores I 949 00:41:47,309 --> 00:41:44,739 think as well the peaks in the mid I are 950 00:41:49,529 --> 00:41:47,319 around 1460 reciprocal centimeters are 951 00:41:50,789 --> 00:41:49,539 also interesting because they are the 952 00:41:52,259 --> 00:41:50,799 most distinct between the three 953 00:41:54,299 --> 00:41:52,269 different phases of ethane we studied 954 00:41:56,130 --> 00:41:54,309 the summer as you can see in here we 955 00:41:59,009 --> 00:41:56,140 have an amorphous ice and metastable ice 956 00:42:02,910 --> 00:41:59,019 and a crystal and ice all being stable 957 00:42:04,650 --> 00:42:02,920 at 14 Kelvin so here are spectra of 958 00:42:06,779 --> 00:42:04,660 ethane in the near-ir again for these 959 00:42:08,609 --> 00:42:06,789 three different phases unlike in the mid 960 00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:08,619 I are these Peaks are very similar 961 00:42:13,009 --> 00:42:10,450 across the same through phases except 962 00:42:14,969 --> 00:42:13,019 for this one around 2.5 microns or 963 00:42:17,130 --> 00:42:14,979 approximately 4,000 reciprocal 964 00:42:20,099 --> 00:42:17,140 centimeters this is the only really wit 965 00:42:23,339 --> 00:42:20,109 accurate way to tell very in the near-ir 966 00:42:26,430 --> 00:42:23,349 b phase of anything eyes shown here is 967 00:42:28,559 --> 00:42:26,440 one of our amorphous ice spectra 968 00:42:30,630 --> 00:42:28,569 overlaid with the special from 2005 FY 9 969 00:42:32,670 --> 00:42:30,640 shown earlier as you can see these three 970 00:42:35,519 --> 00:42:32,680 peaks do correlate with these seen in FY 971 00:42:39,690 --> 00:42:35,529 9 however the peak that identifies the 972 00:42:41,400 --> 00:42:39,700 phase is not shown so future earth-based 973 00:42:43,349 --> 00:42:41,410 observations if they include this week 974 00:42:47,219 --> 00:42:43,359 we could potentially determine the phase 975 00:42:48,599 --> 00:42:47,229 of ethane present on body these three 976 00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:48,609 different phases of methane are formed 977 00:42:50,740 --> 00:42:49,050 by two 978 00:42:53,120 --> 00:42:50,750 ethane ices at different temperatures 979 00:42:54,980 --> 00:42:53,130 amorphous ice is formed between 10 to 25 980 00:42:57,650 --> 00:42:54,990 Kelvin metastable ice is formed between 981 00:43:00,140 --> 00:42:57,660 25 to 50 Kelvin and krissalyn ice is 982 00:43:01,670 --> 00:43:00,150 formed between 50 to 60 other metastable 983 00:43:03,350 --> 00:43:01,680 Isis are particularly interesting 984 00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:03,360 because this is the temperature range 985 00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:05,490 that most transient feeney objects 986 00:43:10,970 --> 00:43:07,770 similar to Pluto exist at these are 987 00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:10,980 typically between and they're about or 988 00:43:14,830 --> 00:43:12,930 less than 40 Kelvin so we would expect 989 00:43:18,590 --> 00:43:14,840 to see metastable Isis on these bodies 990 00:43:20,210 --> 00:43:18,600 shown here this demonstrates the thermal 991 00:43:22,160 --> 00:43:20,220 properties of these Isis they will 992 00:43:23,330 --> 00:43:22,170 retain their structure when cool however 993 00:43:26,330 --> 00:43:23,340 when they're heated they will become 994 00:43:28,270 --> 00:43:26,340 crystalyn irreversible shown here on 995 00:43:32,090 --> 00:43:28,280 Spector a3 is the same sample of ice 996 00:43:34,130 --> 00:43:32,100 deposited 50k go down to 14 rewarmed 997 00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:34,140 remains metastable however as soon as 998 00:43:39,050 --> 00:43:35,850 it's heated to 65 k and then cooled back 999 00:43:40,580 --> 00:43:39,060 down will remain crystal in contrast 1000 00:43:42,950 --> 00:43:40,590 when these Isis are exposed to radiation 1001 00:43:44,240 --> 00:43:42,960 they have a tendency to become amorphous 1002 00:43:47,270 --> 00:43:44,250 and to produce many different 1003 00:43:49,370 --> 00:43:47,280 hydrocarbons as radiation products shown 1004 00:43:51,970 --> 00:43:49,380 here is a sample that was exposed to 1005 00:43:57,020 --> 00:43:51,980 about 10 electron volts per molecule of 1006 00:43:59,320 --> 00:43:57,030 accelerator pigeons in conclusion this 1007 00:44:01,400 --> 00:43:59,330 research we did over the summer 1008 00:44:03,080 --> 00:44:01,410 determines that the differences between 1009 00:44:05,240 --> 00:44:03,090 amorphous metastable and crystal and 1010 00:44:07,490 --> 00:44:05,250 Isis and ir spectra both in the near and 1011 00:44:11,060 --> 00:44:07,500 mid I are significant and potentially 1012 00:44:13,070 --> 00:44:11,070 useful for base observatories and Isis 1013 00:44:14,420 --> 00:44:13,080 will retain their structure when they 1014 00:44:16,010 --> 00:44:14,430 are cooled however they will become 1015 00:44:18,500 --> 00:44:16,020 crystal and heated to a sufficient 1016 00:44:21,770 --> 00:44:18,510 temperature but these same Isis will 1017 00:44:23,300 --> 00:44:21,780 become amorphous when irradiated that 1018 00:44:24,620 --> 00:44:23,310 are improved understanding that they may 1019 00:44:26,200 --> 00:44:24,630 contribute to future searches for 1020 00:44:28,820 --> 00:44:26,210 hydrocarbons in the outer solar system 1021 00:44:31,700 --> 00:44:28,830 particularly meth missions similar to 1022 00:44:34,430 --> 00:44:31,710 the New Horizons mission to / vixen 1023 00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:34,440 obtains better data I'd like to thank 1024 00:44:38,780 --> 00:44:36,450 dr. Marla morgue dr. Reggie Hudson and 1025 00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:38,790 dr. Jean Peters for all their help this 1026 00:44:42,920 --> 00:44:41,490 summer Steve Brown Tom Ward and Eugene 1027 00:44:45,140 --> 00:44:42,930 Jerry Shengo for the operation of the 1028 00:44:46,700 --> 00:44:45,150 vandegraaff proton accelerator career in 1029 00:44:48,170 --> 00:44:46,710 heavy and nasa for this great 1030 00:44:54,420 --> 00:44:48,180 opportunity and I like to thank you all 1031 00:44:59,380 --> 00:44:56,770 all right I think we take questions from 1032 00:45:03,070 --> 00:44:59,390 the remote sites first anybody out there 1033 00:45:05,580 --> 00:45:03,080 want to yes I was wondering what the 1034 00:45:09,100 --> 00:45:05,590 measure of significance was for spectra 1035 00:45:10,990 --> 00:45:09,110 is it is it qualitative where they look 1036 00:45:14,170 --> 00:45:11,000 different as we saw or is there is there 1037 00:45:17,710 --> 00:45:14,180 a quantitative way to say that two 1038 00:45:19,030 --> 00:45:17,720 spectra significantly different well 1039 00:45:21,370 --> 00:45:19,040 mostly relied on quantitative 1040 00:45:23,410 --> 00:45:21,380 differences because as you can see 1041 00:45:24,910 --> 00:45:23,420 around the page around 14 16 reciprocal 1042 00:45:26,470 --> 00:45:24,920 centimeters it's very distinct you can 1043 00:45:28,930 --> 00:45:26,480 very clearly quantitate if we tell the 1044 00:45:31,510 --> 00:45:28,940 phase of the ethane however we also did 1045 00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:31,520 measure band areas and we figured out 1046 00:45:35,500 --> 00:45:33,050 the relative intensities between these 1047 00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:35,510 peeps so we can have a good idea what 1048 00:45:46,870 --> 00:45:42,170 phase that thing is it thank you around 1049 00:45:49,390 --> 00:45:46,880 the room here anyone I wanted to ask you 1050 00:45:50,950 --> 00:45:49,400 about your your comparison of your 1051 00:45:53,430 --> 00:45:50,960 laboratory spectrum of the three eyes 1052 00:45:57,640 --> 00:45:53,440 phases you have read spectrum with the 1053 00:45:59,470 --> 00:45:57,650 spectrum of the remote I guess it was 1054 00:46:03,370 --> 00:45:59,480 detached object in the Kuiper disk 1055 00:46:05,110 --> 00:46:03,380 heartless yeah you indicated that the 1056 00:46:08,680 --> 00:46:05,120 amorphous signals that would identify 1057 00:46:10,090 --> 00:46:08,690 amorphous ice was not seen and it wasn't 1058 00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:10,100 clear to me whether you meant it hadn't 1059 00:46:16,840 --> 00:46:13,010 been tested or was tested and wasn't 1060 00:46:18,250 --> 00:46:16,850 there well we're not sure from reading 1061 00:46:19,690 --> 00:46:18,260 this paper it's it's hard to tell if 1062 00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:19,700 they did take the observation after that 1063 00:46:23,980 --> 00:46:22,010 wavelength or not yeah so you know let's 1064 00:46:27,490 --> 00:46:23,990 clearly suggests the future work is 1065 00:46:29,470 --> 00:46:27,500 needed yeah very good very much I do 1066 00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:29,480 have one question to you have the 1067 00:46:33,190 --> 00:46:31,850 amorphous de meta stable and the crystal 1068 00:46:34,780 --> 00:46:33,200 and ice and you showed that with the 1069 00:46:36,610 --> 00:46:34,790 metastable when you went to higher 1070 00:46:38,590 --> 00:46:36,620 temperatures you get to crystal and came 1071 00:46:40,300 --> 00:46:38,600 back does the amorphous go to the 1072 00:46:41,770 --> 00:46:40,310 metastable or does it go straight to the 1073 00:46:43,030 --> 00:46:41,780 Christmas no actually the amorphous goes 1074 00:46:44,620 --> 00:46:43,040 to the crystal and it goes at a 1075 00:46:47,290 --> 00:46:44,630 temperature much lower than metastable 1076 00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:47,300 ice requires okay so you can only form 1077 00:46:54,040 --> 00:46:49,490 the metastable ice if the item Solomon 1078 00:46:57,370 --> 00:46:54,050 temperature okay all right thank you 1079 00:47:01,730 --> 00:46:57,380 very much ah next we're going to go 1080 00:47:03,859 --> 00:47:01,740 outside the solar system virtually and 1081 00:47:05,480 --> 00:47:03,869 listen to Kaman todorov who has been 1082 00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:05,490 working with Greg gunning came as a 1083 00:47:09,260 --> 00:47:06,930 student at Connecticut College and will 1084 00:47:11,630 --> 00:47:09,270 talk to us about the atmosphere of a 1085 00:47:15,410 --> 00:47:11,640 recently discovered the actual planet is 1086 00:47:17,990 --> 00:47:15,420 medically spitzer um hello my name is 1087 00:47:21,100 --> 00:47:18,000 calvin toed roof on and recirculate gem 1088 00:47:24,740 --> 00:47:21,110 ink on this summer I are working on 1089 00:47:26,690 --> 00:47:24,750 observations from Iraq tell instrument 1090 00:47:29,960 --> 00:47:26,700 on board of the specie space telescope 1091 00:47:32,750 --> 00:47:29,970 and we looked at secondary transit of X 1092 00:47:35,090 --> 00:47:32,760 product at B 1 B which the transducer 1093 00:47:38,420 --> 00:47:35,100 then we did that to study its atmosphere 1094 00:47:41,330 --> 00:47:38,430 um first why do we want to study exit 1095 00:47:45,260 --> 00:47:41,340 planning on studying exoplanets houses 1096 00:47:47,660 --> 00:47:45,270 on a lot about formation and evolution 1097 00:47:51,230 --> 00:47:47,670 of planetary systems in general not only 1098 00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:51,240 based on our solar system we also 1099 00:47:56,920 --> 00:47:53,010 developed the kinks that would allow us 1100 00:47:59,060 --> 00:47:56,930 to study much smaller exit finance when 1101 00:48:03,920 --> 00:47:59,070 observations that are available with 1102 00:48:06,950 --> 00:48:03,930 more sensitive telescopes um so far arm 1103 00:48:09,859 --> 00:48:06,960 what we know about have one is that it's 1104 00:48:13,940 --> 00:48:09,869 transiting exoplanet that which means 1105 00:48:17,630 --> 00:48:13,950 that eclipses it's our star um and it 1106 00:48:19,970 --> 00:48:17,640 orbits ag0 main sequence board the 1107 00:48:22,040 --> 00:48:19,980 distance to earth is happy for the 1108 00:48:24,349 --> 00:48:22,050 parasite come there's four and a half 1109 00:48:28,040 --> 00:48:24,359 day orbital period the semi-major axis 1110 00:48:31,310 --> 00:48:28,050 is five percent that occurs it's about 1111 00:48:32,660 --> 00:48:31,320 half the size of Jupiter will have the 1112 00:48:36,170 --> 00:48:32,670 mass of Jupiter and a bit bigger than 1113 00:48:39,170 --> 00:48:36,180 attributed in terms of radius and all 1114 00:48:41,390 --> 00:48:39,180 these were determined by back rush from 1115 00:48:43,970 --> 00:48:41,400 however they discovered the final and 1116 00:48:45,580 --> 00:48:43,980 then they were improved later but we 1117 00:48:48,740 --> 00:48:45,590 don't know anything about that 1118 00:48:51,859 --> 00:48:48,750 misleading properties of this planet so 1119 00:48:53,570 --> 00:48:51,869 we want to know more about them so we 1120 00:48:55,820 --> 00:48:53,580 looked at the secondary transit home 1121 00:48:58,160 --> 00:48:55,830 which is the time when the planet is 1122 00:49:00,290 --> 00:48:58,170 behind the star at this time we can 1123 00:49:04,210 --> 00:49:00,300 notice the small job brightness in the 1124 00:49:07,130 --> 00:49:04,220 infrared whether part because lose the 1125 00:49:10,490 --> 00:49:07,140 blackbody flux from our the palette 1126 00:49:11,990 --> 00:49:10,500 itself are we can detect these forests 1127 00:49:13,250 --> 00:49:12,000 with the species Spitzer Space Telescope 1128 00:49:17,120 --> 00:49:13,260 which 1129 00:49:20,050 --> 00:49:17,130 telescope and what we do is we perform 1130 00:49:22,670 --> 00:49:20,060 series observations over about six hours 1131 00:49:24,170 --> 00:49:22,680 we measure the brightness in it and the 1132 00:49:27,500 --> 00:49:24,180 product versus time which give us a 1133 00:49:31,640 --> 00:49:27,510 light curve um this is a sample of our 1134 00:49:36,590 --> 00:49:31,650 datum find it be the smaller at one of 1135 00:49:39,170 --> 00:49:36,600 the two is the Hat one planet um and 1136 00:49:45,260 --> 00:49:39,180 this is a zoomed view and this is ours 1137 00:49:47,780 --> 00:49:45,270 planet o our star and planet establish 1138 00:49:50,210 --> 00:49:47,790 images of what so the first thing we did 1139 00:49:54,770 --> 00:49:50,220 was to clean up the cosmic rays which 1140 00:49:58,070 --> 00:49:54,780 are faint bright pixels in the white 1141 00:50:03,100 --> 00:49:58,080 circles then we integrated the pixels 1142 00:50:06,200 --> 00:50:03,110 around the aperture box of the star and 1143 00:50:09,340 --> 00:50:06,210 that gave us a measure of the brightness 1144 00:50:12,170 --> 00:50:09,350 of the stars of normal and then we used 1145 00:50:13,670 --> 00:50:12,180 fairly conventional methods of 1146 00:50:16,610 --> 00:50:13,680 determining the background levels 1147 00:50:22,840 --> 00:50:16,620 removing them other instrument effects 1148 00:50:26,150 --> 00:50:22,850 um our error analysis was based on a 1149 00:50:28,730 --> 00:50:26,160 bootstrap Montek our simulations which 1150 00:50:30,860 --> 00:50:28,740 is a well-established method and in 1151 00:50:36,230 --> 00:50:30,870 cases when this the exact distribution 1152 00:50:40,130 --> 00:50:36,240 of the points is not known so basically 1153 00:50:43,130 --> 00:50:40,140 what we do is we take our dataset we fit 1154 00:50:45,620 --> 00:50:43,140 our model best fit model in it and then 1155 00:50:49,130 --> 00:50:45,630 we take the differences represented by 1156 00:50:52,370 --> 00:50:49,140 the red to say it wine and then we just 1157 00:50:56,090 --> 00:50:52,380 mix them around in time and then we add 1158 00:50:58,220 --> 00:50:56,100 them back to arm to the best fit model 1159 00:51:02,260 --> 00:50:58,230 with this gives us a new simulated data 1160 00:51:05,450 --> 00:51:02,270 set which we can later armed with 1161 00:51:08,810 --> 00:51:05,460 another model to it and then measure the 1162 00:51:12,140 --> 00:51:08,820 eclipse again we repeat that about 1,000 1163 00:51:14,890 --> 00:51:12,150 or 2,000 times and take the standard 1164 00:51:20,330 --> 00:51:14,900 deviation of the simulated Eclipse depth 1165 00:51:24,900 --> 00:51:20,340 to be our standard deviation and this is 1166 00:51:28,320 --> 00:51:24,910 my result um so the iraq is too 1167 00:51:33,240 --> 00:51:28,330 has four wavelengths and I analyzed all 1168 00:51:37,350 --> 00:51:33,250 four wavelengths that a 5m r 5.8 4.5 and 1169 00:51:40,260 --> 00:51:37,360 3.6 the data is bin so each point 1170 00:51:44,160 --> 00:51:40,270 represents 20 our actual data point and 1171 00:51:47,850 --> 00:51:44,170 this is a lot of time essentially versus 1172 00:51:50,250 --> 00:51:47,860 relative brightness and as you can see 1173 00:51:53,850 --> 00:51:50,260 we get different Eclipse depths of 1174 00:51:57,060 --> 00:51:53,860 different wavelengths but this is 1175 00:51:58,670 --> 00:51:57,070 significant because as you can see from 1176 00:52:02,640 --> 00:51:58,680 this plot which is basically wavelength 1177 00:52:06,600 --> 00:52:02,650 versus the clip step on that this is 1178 00:52:09,300 --> 00:52:06,610 essentially a broadband very low 1179 00:52:13,790 --> 00:52:09,310 resolution spectrum of the atmosphere of 1180 00:52:16,530 --> 00:52:13,800 the planet because the clips depth is 1181 00:52:20,640 --> 00:52:16,540 essentially a measure of how bright is 1182 00:52:24,270 --> 00:52:20,650 the exit planet um these points are 1183 00:52:28,140 --> 00:52:24,280 actually a another planet HD 294 58 1184 00:52:29,940 --> 00:52:28,150 which is very similar to hot one except 1185 00:52:33,570 --> 00:52:29,950 it's actually a bit closer towards its 1186 00:52:37,770 --> 00:52:33,580 star this was analyzed earlier this year 1187 00:52:44,100 --> 00:52:37,780 by Heather Krypton so what they did was 1188 00:52:46,590 --> 00:52:44,110 they fitted a model of of the spectrum 1189 00:52:50,580 --> 00:52:46,600 these inspection models the red spectrum 1190 00:52:52,200 --> 00:52:50,590 is a arm expect is a model in which the 1191 00:52:55,830 --> 00:52:52,210 atmosphere doesn't have a temperature 1192 00:52:59,310 --> 00:52:55,840 english meaning that the lower layers of 1193 00:53:01,920 --> 00:52:59,320 the atmosphere are hotter than the upper 1194 00:53:04,620 --> 00:53:01,930 layers and as you see this model doesn't 1195 00:53:06,270 --> 00:53:04,630 fit very well are however the model 1196 00:53:08,160 --> 00:53:06,280 which includes a temperature inversion 1197 00:53:11,310 --> 00:53:08,170 meaning them the upper atmosphere is 1198 00:53:16,860 --> 00:53:11,320 much hotter than the lower arm it's a 1199 00:53:22,380 --> 00:53:16,870 bit better and hot one has similar 1200 00:53:25,800 --> 00:53:22,390 structure to it some similar structure 1201 00:53:28,080 --> 00:53:25,810 of its spectrum and this plot just shows 1202 00:53:31,770 --> 00:53:28,090 what would happen if we brought half on 1203 00:53:33,570 --> 00:53:31,780 a bit closer to its star and you can see 1204 00:53:37,110 --> 00:53:33,580 that it's actually very similar and both 1205 00:53:39,300 --> 00:53:37,120 within error bars to hd2 1458 so this 1206 00:53:41,570 --> 00:53:39,310 implies that hat one also has a 1207 00:53:46,290 --> 00:53:41,580 temperature inversion in the atmosphere 1208 00:53:52,200 --> 00:53:46,300 thank you i won't think dr. Demming dr. 1209 00:53:55,440 --> 00:53:52,210 Harrington from ucf forearm taking the 1210 00:53:58,500 --> 00:53:55,450 data to dr. moment after call Abby and 1211 00:54:10,170 --> 00:53:58,510 las demas interest on anyone has any 1212 00:54:13,760 --> 00:54:10,180 questions george'll I'm first I just I'm 1213 00:54:16,620 --> 00:54:13,770 curious about the bootstrap simulation I 1214 00:54:18,690 --> 00:54:16,630 was code for that something that that 1215 00:54:21,090 --> 00:54:18,700 you came up with or which program will 1216 00:54:24,120 --> 00:54:21,100 cover to package the jeans i wrote the 1217 00:54:29,250 --> 00:54:24,130 code um involve analysis thought his 1218 00:54:35,820 --> 00:54:29,260 little baby almost all real except for 1219 00:54:42,990 --> 00:54:35,830 students here at her injury which I 1220 00:54:50,880 --> 00:54:45,240 okay how about around around anybody 1221 00:54:54,420 --> 00:54:50,890 here want to pitch in wait we can't let 1222 00:54:57,980 --> 00:54:54,430 get off this worried about what's ideal 1223 00:55:01,530 --> 00:54:57,990 what's it stand for um idea is 1224 00:55:06,660 --> 00:55:01,540 interactive data language I think it's 1225 00:55:08,460 --> 00:55:06,670 see it's essentially programming 1226 00:55:12,560 --> 00:55:08,470 language that allows you to do real-time 1227 00:55:14,670 --> 00:55:12,570 analysis as well as write scripts for it 1228 00:55:17,520 --> 00:55:14,680 which basically means that you can type 1229 00:55:19,230 --> 00:55:17,530 commands and analyze it but just I can 1230 00:55:22,050 --> 00:55:19,240 command or you could write a script and 1231 00:55:26,490 --> 00:55:22,060 just run the soup and how did you do 1232 00:55:29,400 --> 00:55:26,500 things for you you've got a planet that 1233 00:55:32,340 --> 00:55:29,410 is substantially larger than Jupiter but 1234 00:55:34,680 --> 00:55:32,350 it's about half the mass and said yes 1235 00:55:38,010 --> 00:55:34,690 it's very close to the star so it's much 1236 00:55:41,160 --> 00:55:38,020 hotter yes and this makes positive that 1237 00:55:43,920 --> 00:55:41,170 makes be there because especially they 1238 00:55:46,590 --> 00:55:43,930 don't know yeah thermal expansion this 1239 00:55:50,670 --> 00:55:46,600 entry the largest deviation was a long 1240 00:55:52,890 --> 00:55:50,680 wavelengths in both cases why I've been 1241 00:55:54,720 --> 00:55:52,900 nice as biggest in the well but they 1242 00:55:56,370 --> 00:55:54,730 were consistently low I mean your models 1243 00:55:58,320 --> 00:55:56,380 basically went nicely up they were 1244 00:56:01,710 --> 00:55:58,330 relatively flat none of them had a bend 1245 00:56:06,210 --> 00:56:01,720 in them oh the three points are you know 1246 00:56:07,950 --> 00:56:06,220 well this is the best model that the 1247 00:56:12,020 --> 00:56:07,960 people from Harvard came up with this is 1248 00:56:16,440 --> 00:56:12,030 this a lot of room for improvement yes 1249 00:56:18,570 --> 00:56:16,450 okay but methane is which has a band 1250 00:56:21,470 --> 00:56:18,580 that that eight micron band was not the 1251 00:56:25,770 --> 00:56:21,480 answer now did they include methane in 1252 00:56:27,150 --> 00:56:25,780 boxers the obviously screwed up or 1253 00:56:30,560 --> 00:56:27,160 something you need but something's 1254 00:56:36,420 --> 00:56:30,570 different always believe the data right 1255 00:56:39,000 --> 00:56:36,430 yeah there's a sea together yeah point 1256 00:56:39,430 --> 00:56:39,010 my friend there's a strong water man so 1257 00:56:42,550 --> 00:56:39,440 maybe 1258 00:56:48,069 --> 00:56:42,560 that good little fire yo even more 1259 00:56:51,160 --> 00:56:48,079 elevated that small can I think gang I 1260 00:56:54,760 --> 00:56:51,170 had a question or comment no okay anyone 1261 00:56:57,609 --> 00:56:54,770 else okay that concludes our formal 1262 00:56:59,500 --> 00:56:57,619 talks but I first want to always sign 1263 00:57:02,620 --> 00:56:59,510 off here and thank everyone for 1264 00:57:05,920 --> 00:57:02,630 participating listening I would like to 1265 00:57:08,829 --> 00:57:05,930 give special recognition to the six 1266 00:57:12,370 --> 00:57:08,839 mentors who worked with these young 1267 00:57:15,730 --> 00:57:12,380 people today drink summer and as you can 1268 00:57:18,160 --> 00:57:15,740 see the result has extremely good for 1269 00:57:23,710 --> 00:57:18,170 everyone concerned anything I'd like to 1270 00:57:26,829 --> 00:57:23,720 give a hand to the mentors himself last 1271 00:57:29,380 --> 00:57:26,839 perhaps most significant I wish to draw 1272 00:57:33,040 --> 00:57:29,390 a special credit to give special credit 1273 00:57:41,109 --> 00:57:33,050 to Corey eb it was about this zoom in on 1274 00:57:43,690 --> 00:57:41,119 herself has really done a standing job 1275 00:57:46,180 --> 00:57:43,700 in you know shepherding everyone and 1276 00:57:53,819 --> 00:57:46,190 indeed throughout the summer and making 1277 00:57:58,089 --> 00:57:56,380 unfortunately the folks on both sides 1278 00:58:00,730 --> 00:57:58,099 don't get to share in the goodies that 1279 00:58:03,069 --> 00:58:00,740 we've laid out other side of room here 1280 00:58:07,359 --> 00:58:03,079 but we hope you'll have a snack where 1281 00:58:09,190 --> 00:58:07,369 you wherever you

00:58:37,369 and the video good we had one question 1293 00:58:42,309 --> 00:58:40,160 about that before we started today when 1294 00:58:44,439 --> 00:58:42,319 one of the students I won't mention who 1295 00:58:47,349 --> 00:58:44,449 she wanted to send it to her mom or 1296 00:58:52,469 --> 00:58:47,359 something can you look at it 40 times to 1297 00:58:55,299 --> 00:58:52,479 see if not to
