No Degree, No Lab, No Borders: An Independent Researcher's Journey From Yemen to Global Science
Abstract I grew up in Yemen with a dream to study space, but my country had no astronomy programs, no universities for astrophysics, and soon, no stable peace. This Perspective is a personal and systemic account of how I pursued planetary science from a conflict zone—with no smartphone, no home internet, no supervisor, and no institutional backing.

Sub-Neptunes Are Drier than They Seem: Rethinking the Origins of Water-rich Worlds
Recent claims of biosignature gases in sub-Neptune atmospheres have renewed interest in water-rich sub-Neptunes with surface oceans, often referred to as Hycean planets. These planets are hypothesized to form beyond the snow line, accreting large amounts

Abstract NASA has led multispectral (≥3 wavelength bands) thermal infrared (TIR) sensor development from the earliest days of the agency. These data are critical in addressing a wide range of scientific questions and administration priories by measuring both temperature (for wildfire and volcanic eruption monitoring, agricultural plant stress, and ...

Governance of Long‐Term Scientific Infrastructure: Public Value Does Not Protect Itself
Abstract Long‐term scientific infrastructure, including physical archives, monitoring networks, and place‐based research facilities, is frequently described as important but is rarely protected by enforceable governance. When administrative reorganization or budget pressure threatens such infrastructure, the scientific community typically responds with

Space based microlensing planet searches
The discovery of extra-solar planets is arguably the most exciting development in astrophysics during the past 15 years, rivalled only by the detection of dark energy.

This is a theoretical work that reinterprets ancient myths from the perspective of space-based planetary engineering and Earth transformation. It attempts to restore the real history of Earth's evolution and early human civilization by establishing logical connections between mythological narratives and large-scale astrophysical events.

From the Gulf of Guinea to the Global Stage: Africa’s Voice in the Age of Climate Intervention
Abstract Climate intervention technologies, Solar Radiation Management (SRM) and marine Carbon Dioxide Removal (mCDR), are moving from theoretical proposal to serious policy consideration, yet the scientific communities and governance frameworks shaping these decisions remain concentrated in the Global North, while the populations most exposed to ...

Axisymmetric High Spot Coverage on Exoplanet Host HD 189733 A
Transmission spectroscopy is a powerful tool to study exoplanet atmospheres, which can be affected by the ability of stellar photospheric heterogeneity to mimic or mask exoplanetary spectral signatures.
