Women in space: A review of known physiological adaptations and health perspectives
Abstract Exposure to the spaceflight environment causes adaptations in most human physiological systems, many of which are thought to affect women differently from men. Since only 11.5% of astronauts worldwide have been female, these issues are largely understudied.

Origin of Long‐Wavelength Variations in Crustal Thickness on Rocky Planets
Abstract Long‐wavelength crustal thickness variations are observed on telluric planets, particularly on Mars and the Moon whereas Mercury appears to lack such variations. They may stem from two early‐stage positive feedback mechanisms that can emerge in stagnant‐lid planets.

Direct Detection of Hydrogen Reveals a New Macroscopic Crustal Water Reservoir on Early Mars
Abstract The next great leap in Martian exploration is the return of samples to Earth. Maximizing their scientific value requires non‐destructive analytical techniques for early three‐dimensional characterization. Neutron computed tomography (CT), highly sensitive to hydrogen, complements conventional X‐ray CT and enables the detection of hydrous ...

Crustal Density Differences Along Mars' Dichotomy Boundary From Gravity and Topography
Abstract Seismic data for Mars has provided constraints on the thickness of its crust, but its density and how much it varies spatially, especially across the hemispherical dichotomy, is still undetermined. We apply a novel constraint in the analysis of spacecraft tracking data to determine Mars' gravity field that allows for the determination of the ...

Corundum Discovered by SuperCam and the Perseverance Rover at Jezero Crater, Mars
Abstract Mars is primarily composed of mafic mineral assemblages and their alteration products, but small, scattered rocks strewn across the landscape offer clues to greater petrological diversity. While traversing the Jezero crater rim, the Perseverance rover encountered several plagioclase‐rich light‐toned float rocks.

Locating Moonquakes With Single‐Station Seismology
Abstract Renewed international interest in lunar seismometer deployments requires robust single‐station location approach for the highly scattering Moon's crust. We present an event‐location strategy using major lunar event types recorded by the Apollo seismic network. Frequency‐dependent polarization analysis provides P‐wave back‐azimuth and incidence,

Large (∼80 km) Shield Volcanoes on the Moon Possibly Fed by Shallow Magma Reservoirs
Abstract Large shield volcanoes are among the most prominent volcanic structures on terrestrial bodies. The Moon, while volcanically very active in the past and hosting various volcanic features, seems to lack such large shield volcanoes. Here, we report the identification of two lunar volcanic domes (Prinz‐Harbinger and Theophilus) with diameters ...
