LPSC Io Poster Session Tonight

The Io poster session at the Lunar and Planetary Sciences Conference is tonight! Unfortunately, I'm not there, I'm here in Tucson. I am sure most you are not there either, but if you are, you have no excuse after visiting a blog about Io for not visiting the lonely Io posters, more than likely shoved in some deep dark corner, where most people would fear to tread. LPSC this year is at a new venue so I am not sure how the layout is, but all the years I was at LPSC, Io and the other Galileans were off along the far wall of the gymnasium the poster session was held in.

For those who need a refresher on what is being presented this year, I posted summaries of the abstracts last month:

• Volcanism on Io: Insights from Global Geologic Mapping by Dave Williams et al. The blog post covering this abstract is located here.
• Geologic Mapping of the Hi'iaka and Shamshu Regions of Io by Bunte et al. The blog post covering this abstract is located here.
