16th of August 2019 – In recognition of and in cooperation with IYPT2019 and planetary scientists from across the globe, the Lunar and Planetary Institute has created a series of informational graphics illustrating the Top 5 Chemical elements found at each of the solar system’s planets, plus the Moon and Pluto.
The front of each graphic includes a picture of the planet, a histogram showing the abundance of the Top 5 elements at that planet, and an outline of the Periodic Table highlighting the location of those elements on the table. The back of each graphic features a biography of a planetary scientist who studies the planet and a short discussion written by the scientist of what makes that planet chemically unique in the solar system.
