Great! This is a good discipline that needs a little more establishing, I think. Since impact processes seem to have dominated crustal development on *every* rocky or icy body (at some point in its lifetime, anyway), this is a discipline that's truly required if we're to understand planets very well.

and feel as if I had done some wrong, and it is hard to forget the ugly circumstance. I see that such intercourse long continued would make one thoroughly prosaic, hard, and coarse. But the longest intercourse with Nature, though in her rudest moods, does not thus harden and make coarse. A hard, sensible man whom we liken to a rock is indeed much harder than a rock. From hard, coarse, insensible men with whom I have no sympathy, I go to commune with the rocks, whose hearts are comparatively soft." - Henry David Thoreau, November 15, 1853 |
