From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Lunar and Planetary Science Conference (LPSC), jointly sponsored by the Lunar and Planetary Institute (LPI) and NASA Johnson Space Center (JSC), brings together international specialists in petrology, geochemistry, geophysics, geology and astronomy to present the latest results of research in planetary science. Since its beginning in 1970 as the Apollo 11 Lunar Science Conference, the LPSC has been a significant focal point for planetary science research, with more than 1500 planetary scientists and students attending from all over the world. The 38th LPSC was held March 12–16, 2007, at the South Shore Harbour Resort and Conference Center in League City, Texas, 20 miles southeast of Houston.[1]
