Work On Other Objects

Ostro worked on radar observations of the icy satellites of Jupiter and Saturn, particularly with the Cassini-Huygens RADAR instrument. Radar observations of Mars' moons, Phobos and Deimos, have refined knowledge of their orbits and show that their surfaces are coated with very low density (~1 g/cm3) material, most likely fine-grain dust, to a depth of several meters.

Famous quotes containing the words work and/or objects:

    I have long been of the opinion that if work were such a splendid thing the rich would have kept more of it for themselves.
    Bruce Grocott (b. 1940)

    But what is classification but the perceiving that these objects are not chaotic, and are not foreign, but have a law which is also the law of the human mind?
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
