About Isaac:
Isaac is interested in planetary sciences and currently works with Dr. Jack Holt by studying morphology of the northern ice sheet on Mars.
He participated in the 2008-2009 ICECAP Antarctic Field campaign in
hopes of finding analogs between terrestrial ice sheets and those
found on Mars.
