Terrestrial Analogs to Titan for Geophysical Research
Abstract Saturn's moon Titan exhibits remarkable parallels to the Earth in many geophysical and geological processes not found elsewhere in the solar system at the present day. These include a nitrogen atmosphere with a condensible gas—methane—replacing the Earth's water, leading to an active meteorology with rainfall and surface manifestations ...

Eco‐Nutrition and Systems‐Based Practice: A Narrative Review
ABSTRACT Introduction Nutrition‐sensitive ill‐health is a wicked problem that has been resistant to resolution. Systems thinking and systems‐based practice (SBP) offer a more relational, contextual approach but there remains the need for an integrative framework that operationalises systems thinking in a way that is transformative.

Construction of Sampling Disturbance Model of Lunar Surface
This study establishes a dynamic evolution model of the physical and mechanical properties of lunar simulant as a function of sampling-induced disturbance on the lunar surface, aiming to eliminate design errors in sampling missions caused by neglecting ...

Mineralogical Evidence for Highly Evolved Th‐Saturated Magma on Mars
Abstract Thorium‐rich (Th‐rich) geological units have been detected by remote sensing in the Martian crust. However, there is still a lack of mineralogical evidence to constrain the magmatic processes responsible for these anomalies. In this study, we report the first discovery of thorite (ThSiO4) grains within a zircon fragment from Martian regolith ...

Resources for a lunar base: Rocks, minerals, and soil of the Moon [PDF]
The rocks and minerals of the Moon will be included among the raw materials used to construct a lunar base. The lunar regolith, the fragmental material present on the surface of the Moon, is composed mostly of disaggregated rocks and minerals, but also ...

Packaging of Macroscopic Material Payloads: Needs, Challenges, Concepts, and Future Directions
This review introduces a unified framework that decomposes any macroscopic packaging system into the payload, packaging material, and packaging strategy and combines them into a conceptual packaging equation: packaging strategy = payload + packaging material.
