What Can Craters Tell Us About a Planet? [PDF]
In this activity, students examine images of Martian craters and speculate about what caused them. Next, they model the formation of an impact crater by dropping objects into a tray of powder. They examine the effects of each impact and the features each

The Chelyabinsk superbolide: a fragment of asteroid 2011 EO40?
, 2013 Bright fireballs or bolides are caused by meteoroids entering the Earth's atmosphere at high speed. On 2013 February 15, a superbolide was observed in the skies near Chelyabinsk, Russia.

Efficiency of planetesimal ablation in giant planetary envelopes [PDF]
, 2016 Observations of exoplanetary spectra are leading to unprecedented constraints on their atmospheric elemental abundances, particularly O/H, C/H, and C/O ratios.

The 2011 October Draconids Outburst. II. Meteoroid Chemical Abundances from Fireball Spectroscopy [PDF]
, 2013 On October 8, 2011 the Earth crossed dust trails ejected from comet 21P/Giacobini-Zinner in the late 19th and early 20th Century. This gave rise to an outburst in the activity of the October Draconid meteor shower, and an international team was organized

Historical Bolide Infrasound Dataset (1960–1972)
DataWe present the first fully curated, publicly accessible archive of infrasonic records from ten large bolide events documented by the U.S. Air Force Technical Applications Center’s global microbarometer network between 1960 and 1972.

, 2022 The composition of Bolides acts somewhat like a series of snapshots or a diary of my life between March 2020 and December 2021, and for me evokes geographical and temporal cues that are very specific for that particular point in time. The source material includes underwater recordings of kelp forests, captured by homemade hydrophones, the ululations of

Shoemaker-Levy 9 Impact Modeling: I. High-Resolution 3D Bolides
, 2006 We have run high-resolution, three-dimensional, hydrodynamic simulations of the impact of comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 into the atmosphere of Jupiter. We find that the energy deposition profile is largely similar to the previous two-dimensional calculations of
