Geophysical Research LettersThe potential habitability of Jupiter's moon Europa has motivated two missions: NASA's Europa Clipper and ESA's JUpiter ICy moons Explorer (JUICE). Both missions are equipped with ice‐penetrating radars which will transmit radio waves into the subsurface,

Jumping on the moon as a potential exercise countermeasure
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract The Moon's gravitational field strength (17% Earth's gravity) may facilitate the use of bodyweight jumping as an exercise countermeasure against musculoskeletal and cardiovascular deconditioning in reduced gravity settings. The present study characterised the acute physiological and kinetic responses to bodyweight jumping in simulated Lunar ...

Hypogravity simulation using the Variable Gravity Suspension System: A technical report
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Human movement has evolved within Earth's gravitational environment (1 g; −9.81 m s−2). Future human exploration of terrestrial bodies, including the Moon (0.17 g; −1.62 m s−2) and Mars (0.38 g; −3.71 m s−2), will require astronauts to live and work within reduced gravitational environments (hypogravity).

Fluid-rock interactions on icy moons
, 2021 Les missions Cassini-Huygens et Dawn ont révélé des preuves surprenantes de l'altération active des roches d'eau NH3 sur plusieurs mondes glacés du système solaire externe. En particulier, les observations de la petite lune de Saturne Encelade suggèrent qu'elle pourrait même dissimuler une activité hydrothermale active dans un océan d'eau NH3 enrichie ...

Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Crewed interplanetary return missions that are on the planning horizon will take years, more than enough time for initiation and completion of a pregnancy. Pregnancy is viewed as a sequence of processes – fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation, gastrulation, placentation, organogenesis, gross morphogenesis, birth and neonatal ...
