Another academic, A.V.

water, air) from the Martian ground and atmosphere.

(a) Environmental sampling of air, water and surfaces

We actually can use the correction liquid as a base paint.

You read of erosion. Our beaches are being eroded. Land is being eroded.

It is used as an organic fertilizer for plants and as a nutritional supplement for animals.

I'd like you to pick it up as a ground sample.

You know, we saw this in the core samples as they came up.

And then I painted with a red permanent marker over it.

I use the correction white liquide first to paint the symbol.

Top soil erodes by 25 billion tonnes a year from industrial agriculture.

So basically, my students and I go to the cave.

So for instance, it was soap bubbles that helped us generate a building form that would work regardless of the final ground levels.

The mycelium infuses all landscapes, it holds soils together, it's extremely tenacious.

NASA launched the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter, on June 18, 2009, which has collected imagery of the Moon's surface.

The municipality of Eurajoki issued a building permit for the facility in August 2003 and excavation began in 2004.

Nevertheless, they did an initial compaction of the ground, covered the patios with technical packing and immediately began to build the first houses.

As an analogy, one should remember that there are two high tides per day on Earth, and not one.

Ground shaking in populated areas of Canterbury was also generally less strong than for the Haiti quake.

In the center of the crater there is a large dome, which resulted from the uplift of the surface immediately after the impact.

This thing was 300 kilometers across 200 miles an enormous crater that excavated out vast amounts of earth that splashed around the globe and set fires all over the planet, threw up enough dust to block out the sun.

In Cyprus proceeds from bentonite clays and earths are much greater than those from the better known copper mines.

What you're saying is that light is actually entering in, almost like a prism. The light can enter through all of them and go to the white surface before it reflects back.

He was soon joined by Aldrin in performing the first scientific experiments on the lunar surface and collecting samples of Moon rocks.

The digging work led to the removal of a hill on the contested land quite close to houses owned by Palestinians.

Apart from any physical structure that s barely standing, what struck me the most was the grass and trees.

Any removal, damage or compaction of the substratum surface can alter the thermal balance of the ground, triggering processes of permafrost degradation.

A Mars sample return mission (MSR) would be a spaceflight mission to collect rock and dust samples from Mars and to return them to Earth.

The Origins Spectral Interpretation Resource Identification Security Regolith Explorer (OSIRIS REx) is a planned NASA asteroid study and sample return mission.

Mars Hand Lens Imager (MAHLI) This system consists of a camera mounted to a robotic arm on the rover, used to acquire microscopic images of rock and soil.

This design takes advantage of the moderate temperatures in the ground to boost efficiency and reduce the operational costs of heating and cooling systems, and may be combined with solar heating to form a geosolar system with even greater efficiency.

It intends to respond to the scientific and operational information needs related to the prediction and monitoring of geophysical hazards, namely earthquakes, volcanoes and ground instabilities.

The initiative intended to respond to the scientific and operational information needs for the prediction and monitoring of geophysical hazards, namely earthquakes, volcanoes and ground instabilities.

Radar interferometry techniques were presented as a useful method of measuring ground subsidence in oil fields, urban zones and mines, especially in arid regions.

NASA calculated that this approach would mean that the surface would not be heated by more than one degree Celsius, and that it would move no more than 1mm of surface material.

1 million workers and 10 million work hours over three years, using eighty ships, were needed to complete the layer of earth over the sea floor and inside the sea wall.

The main highways connecting the country apos s principal areas of agricultural production have also been damaged or completely destroyed as a result of landslides, floods and the destruction of bridges and roads.

All we have to do is go around and sample, dig into the ground, find those bugs, sequence them, correlate them to the kinds of characteristics we like and don't like that's just a big database and then fertilize.

Turning circle means the circle within which are located the projections onto the ground plane of all the points of the vehicle, excluding the external mirrors and the front direction indicators, when the vehicle is driven in a circle

Nobody stopped to think that all this industrial growth was happening on a small planet with only so much oil and soil, only so many forests and fish.

Provision is made for 10 pick axes at a unit cost of 20 ( 200) to enable UNAVEM staff to dig in the compacted laterite soils which are frequently found in Angola.

It was huge. To give you a sense of the scale, okay, there you go. The scale here is 50 miles on top, a hundred kilometers on the bottom. This thing was 300 kilometers across 200 miles an enormous crater that excavated out vast amounts of earth that splashed around the globe and set fires all over the planet, threw up enough dust to block out the sun.
