The Sands of Phobos: The Martian moon's eccentric orbit refreshes its surface
, 2018 The surface of the Martian moon Phobos exhibits two distinct geologic units, known as the red and blue units. The provenance of these regions is uncertain yet crucial to understanding the origin of the Martian moon and its interaction with the space ...

Moon's volcanic history revealed in glassy spherules from Apollo 17 soil 76501
Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.Abstract Rapidly quenched droplets of pyroclastically erupted lava are common in lunar regolith at landing sites proximal to the maria. Here, we document the U‐Pb chronologies, major element, and trace element compositions of picritic glassy particles from Apollo 17 regolith sample 76501. These particles are dominated by high‐Ti compositions similar to

X‐ray computed tomography study of terrestrial analog cores in preparation for Mars sample return
Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.Abstract Mars Sample Return (MSR) is expected to transform planetary science by providing unprecedented access to pristine Martian material. Initial characterization in the sample receiving facility (SRF) will rely on nondestructive techniques such as X‐ray computed tomography (XCT) to document the condition, distribution, and internal features of ...

Women in space: A review of known physiological adaptations and health perspectives
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.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.

Selection of temperature and power parameters for multi-modular lunar jet penetrator [PDF]
INCAS Bulletin, 2019 The questions and the particularity of the choice of design parameters of multi-module lunar jet penetrators are considered. A constructive layout of the penetrator is proposed and the advantages of a multi-modular design are presented.

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.ABSTRACT Flooding remains one of the most critical natural hazards threatening livelihoods, infrastructure, and ecological systems in Ethiopia's highland landscapes. This study presents a rigorously integrated, multi‐criteria flood risk assessment that combines the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) with GIS‐based spatial modeling to delineate ...
