USGS research web camera image from Biscuit Basin in Yellowstone National Park today. The image shows Black Diamond Pool in the foreground, with a background of green trees and the slopes surrounding the basin. Rocks ejected in a 2024 hydrothermal explosion can be seen around the pool. This is a live view of an area of the park that has been temporarily closed to the public due to the potential for future hazardous events.

There's a big if but a rich payoff, if the bet is good.

"Enhanced Geothermal Systems Electric-Resource Assessment for the Great Basin, Southwestern United States, Burns et al., US. Geological Survey

The authors conducted a provisional assessment of the geothermal-electric resources associated with high-temperature, low-permeability rock formations of the Great Basin, Southwestern United States. If sufficient technological advances to commercialize enhanced geothermal systems occur, then a current best provisional estimate for electric-power generation capacity of 135 gigawatts electric are available from the upper 6 kilometers of the Earth’s crust. This estimate is a potential substantial increase of the installed geothermal electricity-generating capacity from <1 to 10 percent of current total U.S. power production capacity."

I love those people at the #USGS. They go to great extent to describe what they do and how they do it, and even mention the tools they use to produce the datasets.

Apparently #NASA's #MMGIS is now using the new #MSR maps & data created by the #USGS which includes areas west of Jezero. The animation below shows the difference (~3m):

#NASA's #MMGIS has moved (probably some time ago) to a new dataset prepared by the #USGS which includes areas west of Jezero Crater, which may be where the Mars Sample Return mission (#MSR) could land, if the mission ever takes off.

For those interested in Martian maps and #GIS, here is where to find the new data:
