Fully Coherent Model of Dynamics around Binary Asteroids: Application to Didymos and the DART Impact

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
The dynamical environment around binary asteroids has been studied in depth, but these models typically make assumptions about the eccentricity, shapes, or rotational stability of the asteroids.

Saponite Bearing Material Excavated During the Formation of a Recent 25‐m‐Diameter Impact Crater in Southeastern Arabia Terra on Mars

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter's Compact Reconnaissance Imaging Spectrometer for Mars (CRISM), Context Imager (CTX), and High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment observations were analyzed for a 25‐m‐wide impact crater and associated ejecta deposits located in the dust‐covered Arabia Terra region.

Archives of impact: The politics of craters on Earth

open access: yesGeographical Research, Volume 64, Issue 2, May 2026.
This paper examines Earth’s 195 confirmed impact craters as archives, exploring their cataloguing and presentation as heritage sites. It argues Western scientific framings using military language and emphasising catastrophe overlook settler colonialism’s violent histories and marginalise indigenous earth‐sky cosmologies.

Tour of Asteroids for Characterization Observations (TACO): A Planetary Defense Asteroid Tour Concept

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
Asteroid impacts potentially represent a substantial threat to humanity, but one that we can plan for and mitigate. To design an effective asteroid mitigation mission, however, it is important to have as detailed knowledge of the asteroid threat as ...

Coupled Space Weathering: Nanophase Iron Formation by Micrometeoroid Impact and Solar Wind Sputtering

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract Understanding the interplay between micrometeoroid impacts and solar wind irradiation is crucial for interpreting lunar surface evolution. Using reactive molecular dynamics simulations and surface binding energy (SBE) analyses, this study investigates the coupled effects of these two dominant space weathering processes on lunar regolith ...

Orbit of the Patroclus–Menoetius Binary System and Predictions for the 2024/2025 Mutual Events Season

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We report on the ephemeris development for Menoetius, the satellite of Patroclus. Our data set consisted of ground–based and Hubble Space Telescope relative astrometry, as well as 42 lightcurves from the mutual events seasons in 2007, 2012, and 2017/2018.

A CCD search for distant satellites of asteroids 3 Juno and 146 Lucina [PDF]

open access: yes
The results of CCD searches for satellites of asteroids 146 Lucina and 3 Juno are reported. Juno is one of the largest asteroids (D = 244 km); no previous deep imaging search for satellites around it has been reported.

Equilibrium Points and Periodic Orbits of Artificial Satellite Adjacent to an Oblate and Rotating Asteroid

open access: yesJIF (Jurnal Ilmu Fisika)
Asteroids have various shapes (mostly irregular) and physical characteristics. Space missions to asteroids are becoming frequent, and a global mapping scheme is applied to collect the asteroids’ physical properties. Depending on the mission purposes, the

Inflatable Dome for Moon, Mars, Asteroids, and Satellites

open access: yesAIAA SPACE 2007 Conference & Exposition, 2007
On a planet without atmosphere, sustaining human life is very difficult and dangerous, especially during short sunlit period when low temperature prevails. To counter these environmental stresses, the author offer an innovative artificial "Evergreen" dome, an inflated hemisphere with interiors continuously providing a climate like that of Florida ...
