There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

The Mars Rover Perseverance is about to make history once again, as NASA continues to invest a great deal of time and money exploring the planet. Soon, Perseverance will launch a small helicopter, the first-ever to fly over another planet. Two members of the School of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences faculty, assistant professor Frances Rivera-Hernandez and associate professor James Wray, explain that NASA's fascination with Mars relates to what clues the planet may provide about Earth's existence.
