Alan Ure

Alan Ure is a British geologist and planetary scientist. He is primarily known for his work on the composition and evolution of planetary surfaces, particularly Mars. His research often involves the use of remote sensing data, such as data from orbiting spacecraft, to analyze the mineralogy and geochemistry of these surfaces. He has contributed to studies concerning Martian meteorites and the implications they hold for understanding the red planet's history and potential for past habitability. Dr. Ure has published extensively in peer-reviewed scientific journals, contributing significantly to the understanding of planetary geology and the search for evidence of past or present life beyond Earth. He is associated with various research institutions and universities, collaborating with other scientists on international projects.
