ABSTRACT As a crucial puzzle piece of deep space exploration, exploring small bodies can provide significant scientific insights and valuable mineral resources. Unlike missions to the Moon and Mars, small‐body missions pose distinct technical challenges, including communication delays, weak gravity, and uncertain environments. This paper reviews a full

The formation of molecular hydrogen in the interstellar medium [PDF]
H2 is the most abundant molecule in the interstellar medium and forms on the surface of interstellar dust grains. Laboratory studies have been conducted of HD formation on a dust grain analogue, which is a highly-oriented pyrolytic graphite surface ...

Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight
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 ...

Toroidal Plasma Thruster for Interplanetary and Interstellar Space Flights [PDF]
This work involves a conceptual assessment for using the toroidal fusion reactor for deep space interplanetary and interstellar missions. Toroidal thermonuclear fusion reactors, such as tokamaks and stellarators, are unique for space propulsion, allowing

Detecting Dark Objects with Plasma Microlensing by Their Gravitational Wakes
A moving mass makes a gravitational wake in the partially ionized interstellar medium, which acts as a lens for radio-frequency light. Consequently, plasma microlensing could complement gravitational microlensing in the search for invisible massive ...

On Detecting Interstellar Scintillation in Narrowband Radio SETI
To date, the search for radio technosignatures has focused on sky location as a primary discriminant between technosignature candidates and anthropogenic radio frequency interference (RFI).

Therapeutic nano‐drug delivery systems interact with cellular mitochondria in a multitude of ways. While the complexity of such interactions disrupts the mitochondrial electron transport chain and increases reactive oxygen species production, thereby contributing to nanoparticle toxicity, they also present unique theranostic opportunities in diseases ...

ICRF Plasma Production with the W7-X Like Antenna in the Uragan-2M Stellarator
0000-0003-4948-0896The results of the plasma start-up with ICRH of U-2M RF discharges in H2+He mixture with newly implemented controlled gas H2 concentration are presented. The W7-X like ICRH antenna operated in monopole phasing with applied RF power of ∼

AI Based Velocity Calibration for Cassini's Cosmic Dust Analyzer (CDA)
Abstract This paper presents a novel AI‐based velocity calibration method for the Cosmic Dust Analyzer (CDA) onboard the Cassini spacecraft, in particular for impacts on the large Impact Ionization Detector (IID). The legacy polynomial calibration function, derived from laboratory measurements at a dust accelerator facility, assigns a velocity ...
