Planetary scientists sharing ideas and discoveries.
Planetary Science and Resources Discoveries (PSRD) is an educational site sharing research on the nature and origin of the Moon, meteorites, asteroids, planets, and other materials in our Solar System, and on identifying potential resources on those bodies that could benefit people on Earth. Original support, from 1996 to 2020, came from the Planetary Science Division of NASA's Science Mission Directorate and Hawai'i Space Grant Consortium.
