Multiplying Elements of Fragmentation? Polycentrism, the Launcher Crisis and the Future of Europe in Space

open access: yesGlobal Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article explores the current controversies surrounding the European Ariane launcher and its implications for the future of European space governance. The Ariane program, historically a symbol of European technopolitical integration, faces mounting challenges due to delays, rising costs and increasing competition from private actors like ...

The NASA Lunar Impact Monitoring Program

open access: yes, 2008
We have a fruitful observing program underway which has significantly increased the number of lunar impacts observed. We have done initial test shots at the Ames Vertical Gun Range obtained preliminary luminous efficiency values.

Punchline with(out) purpose: Integrating research on instructional humour and seductive details

open access: yesBritish Journal of Educational Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction We integrated research on instructional humour and seductive details to investigate when affiliative course‐related humour is effective or rather ineffective for learning. We assumed that instructional humour without a cognitive function (irrelevant humour) would have detrimental effects on learning performance resembling the ...

The Population of Young Craters on the Moon: New Catalog and Spatial and Temporal Analysis

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
We present a new catalog of the Moon’s rayed and rocky craters from 5 to 130 km in diameter. Using data from the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter and the JAXA Kaguya/Selene missions, we identify 571 unique craters with albedo, maturity, and/or thermophysical

Impact-driven Deposition of Metallic Titanium on the Moon

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
Impact-induced high temperatures are a key driver of titanium (Ti) redistribution in Ti-bearing phases, which is crucial for understanding element cycling on the Moon.
