Compression‐Expansion: Miniaturization, Modularity, and Logistics Beyond Earth
ABSTRACT If the Cold War space race culminated in a return to Earth, at present we are experiencing a renewed interest in space. Drawing on fieldwork among people working in the space sector in Sweden, this article focuses on some of the imaginaries underpinning this resurgence and the contemporary commercialization of space. Specifically, I hone in on

A History of the Extraterrestrial Life Debate [PDF]
From antiquity to the present, humans have debated whether intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe. This presentation will survey this debate, examining the roles played in it by science, religion, philosophy, and other areas of human learning. One thesis that will be developed is that whether or not extraterrestrials exist, ideas about them

Key Points PEEK tubing has been observed to adsorb Pd and Pt ions, resulting in significantly reduced recoveries of Pd and Pt elements. HPA‐S provides a more effective dissolution for meteorite samples than Carius tube digestion, resulting in higher mass fractions for PGE.

Life cannot emerge on a planet or moon without the appropriate electrochemical disequilibria and the minerals that mediate energy-dissipative processes. Here, it is argued that four minerals, olivine ([Mg>Fe]2SiO4), bridgmanite ([Mg,Fe]SiO3), serpentine (

Breeding 5.0: Artificial intelligence (AI)‐decoded germplasm for accelerated crop innovation
ABSTRACT Crop breeding technologies are vital for global food security. While traditional methods have improved yield, stress tolerance, and nutrition, rising challenges such as climate instability, land loss, and pest pressure now demand new solutions.

The Mission (Im)possible of Climate Action through Quixotic Institutional Work
Abstract The ‘iron cage’ of the (neo‐) liberal‐capitalist system prioritizes economic returns over climate protection. Formerly powerful nation‐states are subordinated to the rule of markets, whereas business elites have been freed from substantial responsibility for social and environmental concerns.

Autocatalytic Selection as a Driver for the Origin of Life
Darwin’s theory of evolution by natural selection was revolutionary because it provided a mechanism by which variation could be selected. This mechanism can only operate on living systems and thus cannot be applied to the origin of life. Here, we propose
