Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The design of a hexapod is complex and requires integration between kinematic models, control systems, and sensing. Existing literature has reviewed these sub‐systems in isolation. Since 2021, there has been no review of the field despite significant advancements in soft soil, lunar traversal, and artificial intelligence.

Small, Volume 22, Issue 57, 13 October 2026.A Martian regolith‐simulant/PDMS triboelectric nanogenerator is developed as an ISRU‐inspired, self‐powered tactile sensor for wireless human–machine interface applications. ABSTRACT Achieving a sustainable energy system for space missions remains challenging due to the continued reliance on Earth‐supplied materials.

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.Abstract Regolith samples from the carbonaceous asteroid Bennu were stowed and delivered to Earth in the OSIRIS‐REx spacecraft's Sample Return Capsule (SRC). We applied multiple analytical techniques to study the components of the post‐flight SRC, with a focus on assessing the conditions and any contaminants to which the Bennu samples were exposed ...

Thermal history, collisional history, and structure of the CK‐chondrite parent body
Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.Abstract Major chondrite groups (H, L, LL, R, EH, EL, CK) with some members of petrologic type 5 and 6 also have some members of types 3 and 4; they do not have members of type 1 or 2. Their parent bodies had onion‐shell structures and were internally heated by the decay of 26Al.

Scattering And Absorption of Light in Planetary Regoliths [PDF]
Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2019 Theoretical, numerical, and experimental methods are presented for multiple scattering of light in macroscopic discrete random media of densely-packed microscopic particles. The theoretical and numerical methods constitute a framework of Radiative Transfer with Reciprocal Transactions (R2T2).

The Earth's Greatest Porous Media
Perspectives of Earth and Space Scientists, Volume 7, Issue 1, December 2026.Abstract How deeply does modern meteoric water circulate into the continental crust? How deep is the Earth's Critical Zone (CZ), the top layer of the continental lithosphere that co‐evolves with the atmosphere, hydrosphere, and biosphere, extending from vegetation canopy down to fresh bedrock and the base of active groundwater circulation?

International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 50, Issue 16, Page 5701-5711, November 2026.ABSTRACT The EAC‐1A lunar mare simulant, a silty sand, was selected by the European Astronaut Center (EAC) for use in the LUNA analogue facility's lunar simulation testbed. Its stress‐ and strain‐dependent shear modulus and damping ratio were determined via resonant column testing on specimens prepared either from ambient moisture material or oven ...
