Unraveling the geologic history of meteorites and our planet Earth Earth Sciences at the Geoscience Center Göttingen The Geoscience Center Göttingen (GZG) is an interdisciplinary focused research institute of the Georg- August-University of Göttingen in Germany. International teams of overall more than 150 scientists are working towards a better understanding of geologic processes that shaped our planet Earth throughout its history, and will shape it in the future. Characterization of extraterrestrial materials Andreas Pack’s team determines the triple oxygen isotope signatures (d 18 O, d 17 O) in meteorites coming from planetary bodies far away in the solar system, including meteorites originating from Mars and the Moon. By studying the oxygen isotope characteristics of these
