Lunar Dust, Plasma & Atmosphere workshop recap

Participants of the LDAP-2010 meeting, January 27–29, 2010 in Boulder, CO.

The scientific workshop, “Lunar Dust, Plasma & Atmosphere: The Next Steps,” was held January 27–29, 2010, at the Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics (LASP), University of Colorado Boulder. This meeting was organized by CCLDAS.

The meeting was a forum to discuss our current understanding of the lunar atmosphere, including atmosphere–surface interactions, and to share results from past and still ongoing missions. It focused on the open science questions, the status of our modeling and laboratory experimental capabilities, required measurements, and instrument capabilities for future investigations on orbit, or to be deployed on the lunar surface.
