Lab launches interdisciplinary Space Science Institute
What are the next world-class, game-changing concepts and technologies that will address the most important questions in astrophysics or planetary science? Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) researchers will soon be better equipped to answer this question with the launch this month of a new Space Science Institute (SSI), intended to boost cross-discipline collaboration and discovery.
Sponsored jointly by LLNL’s Physical and Life Sciences (PLS) and Global Security (GS) organizations, SSI will build on Livermore strengths in astrophysics, earth science, nuclear science and engineering, cosmochemistry and data science to develop a pipeline of LLNL-led projects and mission-ready people. According to Glenn Fox, PLS principal associate director, the new institute will foster a strategic vision for LLNL’s space science research while growing and enhancing its external profile in the space science community.

The object has settled near a family of captured ancient asteroids, called Trojans, that are orbiting the Sun alongside Jupiter. This is the first time a comet-like object has been spotted near the Trojan population.
