WSGC grant

Lawrence University junior Zachary Hogan has turned his fascination with Mars into research that has garnered a grant from the Wisconsin Space Grant Consortium (WSGC), an educational branch of NASA. The geosciences major from Warrenville, Illinois, is using the $5,000 grant to fund research into the deterioration of ice cliffs on the poles of Mars. The end goal, Hogan said, is to determine an annual volume of material that's shedding from the ice slopes, which could inform further research on the surface of Mars. In August, he'll present his research to WSGC, and his write-up will be published in the WSGC's student publication.
