Astrobiology Grand Tour 2018,
Denham, Australia 
This field trip in Western Australia will visit sites that every astrobiologist or geobiologist should see at least once in their lives. It will be a high level educational and cultural/sensory experience that will enrich all participants – scientists and non-scientists alike! The trip will traverse back through time, starting with the spectacular, living stromatolites of Shark Bay, with a rare opportunity to swim with these protected microbial structures. Following this, we will visit the remote sites of fossilised stromatolites from the c. 1.8 Ga Duck Creek Dolomite and c. 2.4 Ga Turee Creek Group, and walk through the transition across the rise of atmospheric oxygen (the GOE). We will then camp at Karijini National Park and hike through a canyon with walls made of 2.5 Ga Banded Iron Formation (BIF), and swim at the beautiful Fortescue Falls. Following this will be a visit to stromatolites of the c. 2.7 Ga Fortescue Group, then the c. 3.35-3.49 Ga fossiliferous units of the Pilbara Craton, including newly discovered geyserite in the Dresser Formation, site of the oldest evidence for life on land.
Expect intense discussions about such topics as the timing of the origin of life and oxygenic photosynthesis, whether life ever was (or still is) on Mars, the composition of the Archean atmosphere, and the setting for the origin of life. As well as the science, we will enjoy some spectacular scenery, memorable campfire dinners, and sleeping under the southern stars.

LPI Seminar: Domed Labyrinth Terrains – What Can They Tell Us About Titan’s Ice Shell? (Lauren Schurmeier, University of Illinois at Chicago),
Lecture Hall
The methane in Titan’s atmosphere is constantly photochemically broken down into organic molecules that collect in hazes and sediments on the surface. This fast breakdown, along with the identification of vast organic-rich regions of Titan, including dunes, Undifferentiated Plains, and Labyrinth Terrains, implies that methane replenishment must occur. Titan’s ice shell may contribute to atmospheric methane replenishment through direct insertion due to cryovolcanic eruptions or release from near surface methane clathrates. Unfortunately, there is little direct evidence for the existence of methane clathrates, and while putative cryovolcanic constructs has been identified, the interpretation as cryovolcanoes has been debated. I study specific topographic loads in Titan’s mid-latitudes - large isolated plateaus and clustered dome shaped Labyrinth terrains - to determine if they could have cryovolcanic origins, and investigate through finite-element modeling and scaling relationships if they can form within or be supported by a water ice-rich or methane clathrate-rich ice shell. My results show that despite its greater strength relative to water ice, methane clathrate shells are too thermally insulating, resulting in thinner lithospheres that are inconsistent with these topographic loads. Thin lithospheres cannot support large plateaus; they must be supported in a predominately water ice-rich shell. Similarly, if Titan’s dome shaped Labyrinths are large subsurface cryovolcanic laccoliths that form near Titan’s brittle-ductile transition, their sizes imply a predominately ice-rich shell, not a predominately methane clathrate ice shell in the mid-latitudes. The methane that recharges Titan’s atmosphere may need to come from somewhere else.

LPI Seminar: Revisiting Models of Lunar Troctolite Formation (Tabb Prissel, Rutgers University, Dept. of Earth & Planetary Sciences),
Lecture Hall
There are two types of pristine lunar troctolites as distinguished by spinel chemistry: “common” lunar troctolites +/- chromite, and the volumetrically minor pink spinel-bearing troctolites (PST). Recent experimental evidence indicates PST mineralogy is best explained by reaction between MgO-rich primary liquids and anorthite. The formation of common lunar troctolites can be attributed to equilibrium crystallization prior to reaction with anorthite. Previously, models of equilibrium crystallization were ruled out due to the pairing of forsteritic olivine with anorthitic plagioclase (i.e., the so-called “Mg# problem”). However, in this presentation I will demonstrate that equilibrium crystallization of MgO-rich primary liquids can reconcile the high forsterite content, as well as the presence of chromite, observed in common lunar troctolites. These results are then discussed in the context of a differentiating lunar magma ocean, and also the onset, duration, and global extent of cumulate mantle overturn.

LPI Seminar: When impacts impart: New insights into the delivery of water by impacts (Terik Daly, Johns Hopkins),
Lecture Hall
Dynamical models and observational evidence indicate that water-rich asteroids and comets deliver water to objects throughout the solar system, but the mechanisms by which this water is captured have been unclear. New experiments reveal that impact melts and breccias capture up to 30% of the water carried by carbonaceous chondrite–like projectiles under impact conditions typical of the main asteroid belt impact and the early phases of planet formation. This impactor-derived water resides in two distinct reservoirs: in impact melts and projectile survivors. Impact melt hosts the bulk of the delivered water. Entrapment of water within impact glasses and melt-bearing breccias is therefore a potential source of hydration features associated with craters on the Moon and elsewhere in the solar system and likely contributed to the early accretion of water during planet formation.

Unveiling the Physics of Protoplanet Formation: Connecting Theory to Observations,
Aspen, Colorado
Unprecedented high angular resolution imagery of circumstellar disks have revealed rings, spirals, and crescents in the gas and dust distribution around young (< 5 million years) pre-main sequence stars. These structures are the signposts of forming planetary systems, and probe the mass, orbit, and formation timescale of young planets. Observations have also revealed spatial variations of the dust particle sizes and changes in the chemical composition of the circumstellar gas. These constrain the processes responsible for the agglomeration of the large bodies (asteroids and comets) that are required to initiate the formation of rocky planets. The recent results stimulate a revision of planet formation models and push for new theoretical studies aimed at understanding the interactions between disks and planets, as well as the physics of solid particles in gaseous disks. The goal of this workshop is to bring together theorists and observers to collaborate on unveiling the key physical processes responsible for the formation of planets and the evolution of solids in protoplanetary disks.

The conditions prevalent in the deep interiors and atmospheric envelopes of solar system planets, their satellites as well as massive solid and gas giant extrasolar planets, respectively, and are not fully accessible by conventional experimental and theoretical methods. New and enabling techniques to be used in the HP/HT regime are based on the combination of intense pulsed x-ray sources with pulsed sample excitation, in particular but not exclusively related to high energy optical lasers. Simultaneously, ab initio simulations for matter under extreme conditions provide a more and more predictive data set for planetary interiors in this HP/HT regime.
