Fast boulder fracturing by thermal fatigue detected on stony asteroids

Nature Communications
Spacecraft observations revealed that rocks on carbonaceous asteroids, which constitute the most numerous class by composition, can develop millimeter-to-meter-scale fractures due to thermal stresses.

Space Weathering Age of Itokawa and Eros by Machine Learning

The Planetary Science Journal
Near-Earth asteroids such as Itokawa and Eros provide valuable insights into the collisional and surface evolution of the inner solar system. As S-type asteroids, their surfaces are altered by space weathering (SW) from solar wind and micrometeorite ...
