Simulated planetary gas detection using the A.C.M.E. chamber and a novel hollow‐core fiber Raman sensor. Controlled atmospheric mixtures were used to evaluate the sensor’s performance, demonstrating its capability to detect gases such as CO₂, O₂, and N₂. The results support the applicability of the HCF‐based Raman sensor in future planetary exploration

Evidence for Intelligent Extraterrestrials is Evidence Against the Existence of God [PDF]
The recent explosion in the discovery of exoplanets and our incipient ability to detect atmospheric biomarkers recommend reflection on the conceptual implications of discovering – or not discovering – extrasolar life.

Sustainability of organic zucchini in Mediterranean environment: an on‐farm experimentation
Abstract BACKGROUND Excess inputs are commonly applied to high‐value crops to ensure high performance. This study hypothesizes that farmers can reduce inputs without compromising yields and aims to investigate the effects of varying irrigation and fertilization strategies on two zucchini genotypes (‘Logos’ and ‘Atlantis’) organically grown under ...

Advances and Trends in Terrain Classification Methods for Off‐Road Perception
ABSTRACT Off‐road autonomous vehicles (OAVs) are becoming increasingly popular for navigating challenging environments in agriculture, military, and exploration applications. These vehicles face unique challenges, such as unpredictable terrain, dynamic obstacles, and varying environmental conditions.

Embedded Interactions and Selective Disclosure: Network Effects on Conversations aboard Skylab
How do absent others influence our interactions? We argue in this paper that interactions are embedded within networks formed by chains of specific relationships between known third parties. The anticipation of future interactions with external others conditions our interpretation of the current situation and affects our behavior in the interaction. We

Lipids as Universal Biomarkers of Extraterrestrial Life [PDF]
In 1965, James Lovelock published a general statement, based on thermodynamic chemical equilibrium principles, about how to detect extant or extinct life on a planet other than Earth. Nearly 50 years later, it is possible to make such measurements with robotic missions such as current and future Mars rovers, and probes to sample icy plumes of Enceladus
