Scientific paper

The thirtieth annual Lunar and Planetary Science Conference took place March 15-19, 1999, at the Johnson Space Center in Houston. The LPSC is the largest conference devoted exclusively to planetary science, and certainly the most diverse in its coverage. One highlight of the week was a group photograph of the thousand participants. Similar photographs were taken during the tenth and twentieth conferences. Almost 900 oral and poster presentations were made during the conference. They discussed a vast array of topics: Studies of the oldest materials in the Solar System, the nature and origin of surface features on Venus and Mars, volcanism throughout the Solar System, and the geology and compositions of the icy moons of the outer planets. This article reports some highlights about Martian life, the Moon, and an unusual new meteorite, reflecting the sessions I attended, not the lack of fascinating results in other sessions.
