Passive sorting of asteroid material using solar radiation pressure [PDF]
, 2014 Understanding dust dynamics in the vicinity of asteroids is key for future science missions and, in the long-term, for asteroid exploitation. This paper analyses the feasibility of manipulating asteroid material by means of solar radiation pressure.

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 9, Page 2201-2217, September 2026.Abstract Here we report on the microstructure and chemistry of sulfide minerals returned from asteroid (162173) Ryugu. We identify a unique sulfide population in particle A0016 composed of violarite (FeNi2S4), pyrite (FeS2), chalcopyrite (CuFeS2), pyrrhotite (Fe1‐xS), and pentlandite ([Fe,Ni]9S8).

Inflatable Dome for Moon, Mars, Asteroids, and Satellites
AIAA 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 ...

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 9, Page 2269-2283, September 2026.Abstract We report the discovery of the second (Al,Cu)‐alloy–bearing micrometeorite, FB‐A2, recovered from Mount Gariglione (southern Italy), representing the sixth such occurrence worldwide. Although chondritic in nature, FB‐A2 differs markedly from previously described microspherules.

Fully Coherent Model of Dynamics around Binary Asteroids: Application to Didymos and the DART Impact
The Planetary Science JournalThe 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.

Risk Analysis, Volume 46, Issue 9, September 2026.ABSTRACT The Fermi paradox may partly reflect technological self‐destruction acting as a Great Filter during post‐industrial development. Because the empirical record consists of a single civilization observed over an eighty‐year nuclear age, the exercise reported here is best understood as a structured, historically anchored scenario analysis rather ...

The Planetary Science JournalAsteroid 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 ...
