“It is an honour to have been selected as a member of the ESA VeSCoor team who will work closely with NASA colleagues.
My background in investigating the atmosphere of Mars through combining computer models and satellite observations has enhanced my interest in utilising similar techniques for other planetary atmospheres such as Venus.” “The atmosphere and surface of Venus still contains many mysteries which to this day puzzle scientists. James, who undertakes his research in the OU’s Atmospheric Research and Surface Exploration group said: The Venus Science Coordination group ‘VeSCoor’ is a newly established joint committee between the European Space Agency and NASA to identify new scientific approaches and synergies among the missions to Venus and to suggest studies to enhance their overall scientific return. James Holmes, an atmospheric scientist at The Open University (OU), has been selected as one of six European scientists to represent the science interests of the European Space Agency (ESA) in an international coordination of Venus science to be performed by three missions in the 2030s.
