Student Mentees

Daniel Kurlander (MIT '26)

05/2023 – Current

Daniel is working on creating a web-based interface to efficiently query and visualize data acquired by the Rosetta mission for Comet 67P. His current progress can be found at comet.photos.

Daniel's incredible work earned him the 2023 MIT Prize for Open Data and was also presented at the DPS '23 conference (Link to Abstract).

Matthew Moser (Brown University '27)

04/2024 – Current

Matt is using RoSCo to create a database of surface changes associated with outbursts on Comet 67P. More details about this work can be found here.

Matt's progress will be presented at the AGU '24 conference (Link to Abstract).

Eads Fouché (Amherst College '25)

06/2024 – Current

Eads is using RoSCo to create visualizations mapping surface activity onto the complex bi-lobate shape of Comet 67P. This work will provide a crucial database for modeling sublimation-driven activity on the comet, more details can be found here.

Eads will present this work at the AGU '24 conference (Link to Abstract).

Katherine Victor (Colgate University '25)

05/2023 – 09/2023

Katie worked on using the Ames Stereo Pipeline's shape-from-shading tool to generate high-resolution topography maps for select regions on Comet 67P. More details on this work can be found here.

Katie presented her results at the AGU '23 conference (Link to Abstract).

Adam Issah (Cornell University '25)

01/2023 – 05/2023

Adam assisted with using the Ames Stereo Pipeline's shape-from-shading tool to generate high-resolution topography maps for the Imhotep region on Comet 67P.

Adam's contributions were published in a recent paper.

Fiona Powers Özyurt (Wellesley College '22)

05/2021 – 05/2023

Fiona assisted with using the Ames Stereo Pipeline's shape-from-shading tool to generate high-resolution topography maps for the Imhotep region on Comet 67P. Fiona also assisted in creating an image degradation pipeline to degrade Rosetta OSIRIS images to resolutions matching previous cometary flybys (see example).

Fiona's contributions were published in a recent paper.
