Good to be back in Sudbury to teach my impact cratering short course and field school. What better place to teach than a 200 km diameter meteorite impact structure! #impactcraters #SudburyImpact #Apollo #Artemis @westernu.ca

Wrapping up a great few days of #fieldwork in eastern #Quebec at a potential new meteorite impact crater. Stay tuned for details of what we found - hint: the brutal field conditions were worth it 😉 #geology #impactcraters #fieldwork #science

Today was capstone day: an EVA traverse on the central uplift of the Kamestastin impact structure. Time to put all the training together! #Kamestastin2025 #geology #artemis #impactcraters #geology #fieldwork

Dramatic close-up of asteroid 433 Eros, imaged by the NEAR Shoemaker spacecraft from a distance of 50 kilometers. The image shows overlapping impact craters, massive boulders, and grooves, revealing the complex surface features of this oddly shaped asteroid. A 40-meter-long boulder is prominently visible near the center.

Close-up of the full Moon showcasing the prominent ray craters Copernicus (upper left) and Tycho (lower right). Tycho, the youngest large crater on the near side, displays extensive bright ray systems, contrasting with the darker mare surrounding Copernicus. The image highlights the detailed texture of the lunar surface and the impact history of our celestial neighbor.

Black and white photo of Eugene Shoemaker at Meteor Crater, Arizona, in the mid-1960s. He's wearing a cowboy hat and holding a long, slender object, possibly a geological tool. Shoemaker, a pioneering astrogeologist, significantly contributed to lunar science and the training of Apollo astronauts. His ashes were later sent to the Moon aboard the Lunar Prospector spacecraft.
