Describing the Global Gravity Field of Mars With Lithospheric Flexure and Deep Mantle Flow

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The volcanic complex Tharsis Region on Mars is known for its numerous volcanoes on top of the crust, elevated topography (doming), and a long‐wavelength gravity anomaly correlated with the region. Flexural modeling of the lithosphere has commonly been used to understand the relationship between observed topography, crustal structure, and ...

Properties Analysis of Lunar Regolith at Chang’E-4 Landing Site Based on 3D Velocity Spectrum of Lunar Penetrating Radar

Remote Sensing, 2020
The Chinese Chang’E-4 mission for moon exploration has been successfully completed. The Chang’E-4 probe achieved the first-ever soft landing on the floor of Von Kármán crater (177.59°E, 45.46°S) of the South Pole-Aitken ...

Small but mighty: Impact hazards from iron Near‐Earth Objects

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 2, Page 224-240, February 2026.
Abstract Small asteroids can impact Earth unexpectedly, as demonstrated by the Chelyabinsk event in 2013. The warning times are likely to be short, and the first tools for fast hazard predictions have been developed in the last years for encounters with rocky or cometary objects, which quickly fragment in the atmosphere and cause airbursts. However, in

Deep learning driven interpretation of Chang'E-4 Lunar Penetrating Radar

Icarus
We reprocessed Chang’E-4 Lunar Penetrating Radar data collected until 27th March 2023 with a total length of about 1440 m adding >400 m to the longest profile published so far. For data interpretation, we exploited a new Deep Learning-based algorithm to automatically extract reflectors from a processed radar dataset. The results are in terms of horizon

Capabilities of Earth-based radar facilities for near-Earth asteroid observations

, 2016
We evaluated the planetary radar capabilities at Arecibo, the Goldstone 70-m DSS-14 and 34-m DSS-13 antennas, the 70-m DSS-43 antenna at Canberra, the Green Bank Telescope, and the Parkes Radio Telescope in terms of their relative sensitivities and the ...

An Analysis of the Exposure History of Apollo 17 Soils: Exploring Relationships Between Lunar Soil Maturity Indices

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Analysis of space weathering features in lunar regolith using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) allows researchers to characterize the surface exposure timescale of individual grains from the Moon. TEM analysis of regolith grains from Apollo 17 scoop samples, collected from five different locations in the Taurus‐Littrow Valley (TLV), each

Subsoil structure at the Chang’E-6 landing site revealed by in-situ Lunar Regolith Penetrating Radar

Communications Earth & Environment
As humanity’s first sample return mission from the lunar farside, China’s Chang’E-6 mission provides a unique window into understanding the dichotomy in lunar nearside-farside evolution. Chang’E-6 landed in the southwestern Apollo basin (~2.79 Ga) within
