Advanced Curation of Astromaterials for Planetary Science Over the Next Decade
Advanced curation is a field of research and development aiming to improve curation and sample acquisition practices in existing astromaterials collections and to enable future sample return activities. The primary result of advanced curation is to preserve the scientific integrity of all samples from mission inception to scientific analysis.
