Present and Recent Research-Related Activities
Major involvement in, latterly in leadership positions, in some of the major planetary exploration missions of recent decades, delivering enormous strides in our understanding of the environments of these bodies (planets, satellites and minor bodies), including the Giotto mission to comet Halley and Cassini-Huygens to Saturn & Titan. Earlier major instrument development for the Hubble Space Telescope and high energy astrophysics missions. Also laboratory studies of hypervelocity processes. Main projects include:
Cassini/Huygens:Principal Investigator for the Surface Science Package (SSP) and Co-I for the Atmospheric Structure Instrument (HASI) for the Huygens probe/lander on the Cassini mission to Saturn and Titan. Continuing data analysis and interpretation.
ExoMars:Selected by ESA to provide UVIS (Ultraviolet & Visible spectrometer) as PI (Principal Investigator) and AEP (Advanced Environmental Package) as co-PI; the former to characterise for the first time the UV environment on the Martian surface; the AEP to measure the meteorological environment with, for the first time, an automatic high resolution mode to characterise dust devils.
Ptolemy-Rosetta Lander: Deputy PI for PTOLEMY, an instrument designed at the OU to measure isotopic ratios on the surface of comet Churyumov/Gerasimenko as part of ESA's Rosetta mission
Environmental Sensors Suite-Beagle 2: Co-Principal Investigator for the Environmental Sensors Suite on the Beagle 2 Mars lander to make measurements of meteorological, radiation and physical properties on the surface of Mars.
Future Missions:Major involvement with (and leadership in) developing concepts, technology and instruments for missions to Europa, Titan, Enceladus and asteroid sample return.
Research Leadership: Immediate pastDirector of the Open University’s CEPSAR(Centre for Earth, Planetary, Space & Astronomical Research) comprising more than 150 research and research-related staff covering research from the interior of the Earth to cosmological scales.
