AST-0628780/Clarke, BUThe adaptive optics capability of U.S. Air Force's Advanced Electro-Optical System telescope will be used to search for auroral and airglow emissions from the Martian atmosphere. If successful, the observations will help better understand atmospheric and ionospheric processes in the Martian environment. The work will be included in Boston University's on-going public outreach efforts through the Young Adult program at the Boston Public Library.

美国空军先进光电系统望远镜的自适应光学能力将用于搜索火星大气的极光和气辉发射。如果成功，这些观测将有助于更好地了解火星环境中的大气和电离层过程。这项工作将通过波士顿公共图书馆的青年成人项目纳入波士顿大学正在进行的公共宣传工作。
