Hi Tim- Wow, I could feel the energy all the way over here with the discovery of the impact breccia in the core.Smiles all around, especially Julie BG. My intermediate classes are studying impact cratering and Mars geology, so the videos and the "find" were very timely. Tell the team I appreciate that :D Kidding aside, you all have had a very successful journey. Thanks for the videos,photos, and science content. Congratulations to all, and safe travels home! Cheers, Lollie

Lollie,
Once again good to hear from the Texans...
Although I am now back in Pevek, stay tuned for the next couple days as I will continue to share more of the work and the science from the Lake E expedition. Be sure and tell your students who have been studying craters and Mars to look for news from Lake E in the future. Since Lake E is the biggest, relativly young impact crater on Earth that is in volcanic rocks, many planetary scientist are interested in the rocks we have been drilling because the Lake E impact crater may be more similar to craters on the the Moon and Mars than any other know location on Earth.
