Nondestructive analysis of Bennu samples toward comparative studies with Ryugu samples
Abstract Analyzing primitive extraterrestrial samples from asteroids is key to understanding the evolution of the early solar system. The OSIRIS‐REx mission returned samples from the B‐type asteroid Bennu, providing a valuable opportunity to compare them with the Ryugu samples collected by the Hayabusa2 mission.

Description and modeling of the Jiddat al Harasis 091 L5 strewn field
Abstract With a size of 51.2 × 7.2 km, the 10.9 ± 1.7 ka old Jiddat al Harasis 091 L5 chondrite strewn field is the largest known in Oman. It consists of more than 700 meteorites with a total mass of >4.5 tons from which the largest six stones of >100 kg to 1.5 tons make up two thirds of the total mass.

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.

Influence of the Earthward and Tailward Ion Flows on the Lunar Surface Water in the Magnetotail
Abstract Earth wind, namely the particles from the Earth's magnetotail, is an important source of lunar water. Besides tailward flow incident on the lunar nearside when the Moon is in the magnetotail, there exists earthward flow bombarding the farside, affecting the distribution and preservation of lunar water.

Oxychlorine Species on Mars: A Review
Abstract Oxychlorine species (mainly perchlorate and chlorate) have been identified at multiple locations on the surface of Mars by both orbiter and in situ rovers. They have also been found in martian meteorites. Cl‐isotopes in meteoritic minerals suggest that an oxychlorine cycle has been operating on the martian surface for the last ∼4 billion years.

Abstract The Capricorn Orogen, central to the West Australian Craton (WAC) and flanked by the Pilbara Craton to the north and the Yilgarn Craton to the south, records complex tectonic processes spanning from the Archean to the Neoproterozoic, including two major Paleoproterozoic collisions—the 2,215–2,145 Ma Ophthalmia Orogeny and the 2,005–1,950 Ma ...
