Seminar Announcement: The Cosmic Billiard â?? Meteorites and Their Impacts

Apologies for multiple postings -

We are one month away!

Meteorites are rare objects containing precious information on the origin
of our solar system. They preserve evidence of processes that occurred on
asteroids in the first few million years of our solar systemâ??s history, but
also of later-stage events. These asteroids were heated by radioactive
decay, leading to thermal metamorphism and release of fluids. They also
experienced multiple collisions that left shock damage in the meteorites.
Some of these meteorites are finds â?? often recovered in Antarctica or in
hot deserts â?? but the most pristine ones are observed falls that are
quickly recovered after their landing on Earth, preventing terrestrial
alteration.

We are pleased to announce a five-hour seminar on the meteoritics science
with particular emphasis on the importance of meteorites related to
planetary formation, sample return missions from other celestial bodies,
and from Antarctica. Further, the potential threat from near-earth
asteroids is small, but not Zero, and as such -and celebrating the recent
"Asteroid Day"- the "impact hazards (https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://bit.ly/3zdTz4N__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!fMHM4RHT5qefU-5BxPZmyLFU4T9w9BR2KKEVJ9y7qQm0z6BUSeBdTQEFmlWObCmJeBVFLWxP5lCYCExa$

is another unique topic that will be discussed during the event. The
seminar will be virtual from the Agricultural University of Athens on
*Thursday,
July 7, 2022*.
