About
Brent Garry is a planetary geologist whose research centers on volcanic processes, impact cratering, and the geological evolution of terrestrial bodies, including the Moon, Mars, and Earth. His major contributions include advancing the understanding of lava flow emplacement dynamics through field studies and remote sensing, particularly in analog environments like the Snake River Plain and Hawaii. Garry has also played a key role in characterizing volcanic terrains on the Moon and Mars, informing landing site selection for robotic and human missions. His work on low-latency teleoperations for human exploration, as part of the Evolvable Mars Campaign, highlights his interdisciplinary approach to bridging geology and spaceflight operations. With over 30 peer-reviewed publications and more than 1,000 citations, Garry’s research has significantly shaped planetary volcanology. Notably, he has served as a science team member on NASA’s Mars Exploration Rover and Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter missions, and his contributions to analog field campaigns have been instrumental in training astronauts and mission planners.
