Strong Lateral Confinement of Hydrophilic Silica Nanoparticles on Mg‐Al Layered Double Hydroxides Nanoflakes for Enhanced Thermal Properties

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A nanostructured, naturally flame‐retardant, and non‐toxic inorganic composite is introduced, which is laterally associated with silica nanoparticles to induce the restacking of the LDH lamella structure, thereby serving as an efficient thermal insulator.

Large-scale Roughness Properties of the Lunar North and South Polar Regions as Measured by the Lunar Orbiter Laser Altimeter (LOLA)

The Planetary Science Journal
The lunar polar regions are high-priority targets for scientific investigation and exploration. To aid these endeavors, we produced enhanced altimetry data from the Lunar Orbiter Laser Altimeter for the north polar region, from which we computed new maps

Coordinates and maps of the Apollo 17 landing site [PDF]

, 2018
We carried out an extensive cartographic analysis of the Apollo 17 landing site and determined and mapped positions of the astronauts, their equipment, and lunar landmarks with accuracies of better than ±1 m in most cases.

Lunar Mare Basaltic Volcanism: Volcanic Features and Emplacement Processes

Reviews in Mineralogy and Geochemistry, 2023
Volcanism is a fundamental process in the geological evolution of the Moon, providing clues to the composition and structure of the mantle, the location and duration of interior melting, the nature of convection and lunar thermal evolution. Progress in understanding volcanism has been remarkable in the short 60-year span of the Space Age.

Nonlocomotory Robotic Strategies for Dynamic Rotation Control in Terrestrial Robots: A Review

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Terrestrial robots increasingly require rapid body rotation to maintain stability and agility in complex environments. This review shows nonlocomotory rotational control strategies that operate without ground contact, including reaction wheels, tails, bars, limbs, and thrusters.

Similar Topography and Crater Retention Record yet Divergent Space Weathering Extents across Reiner Gamma on the Moon

The Planetary Science Journal
Electrostatic levitation and migration of charged dust may occur during the formation of lunar swirls. Due to interaction between crustal magnetic anomalies and solar wind, immature fine-grained particles are predicted to preferentially migrate to bright

The Role of Ionic Liquids at the Biological Interfaces in Bioelectronics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Ionic liquids (ILs) are highlighted as key artificial ionic materials that bridge biological ion‐based signaling and electronic devices. By understanding their composition, structure, function relationships, and mechanisms, ILs can advance from high performance electrolyte to core materials enabling integrated, multifunctional bioelectronics for ...
