Abstract The JGR paper by Lawler et al. (2025, https://doi.org/10.1029/2025jd043530) marks a significant and historic first, the PALMS single‐particle chemical analysis sampling deep stratospheric Arctic vortex air for the first time. The analysis finds ∼90% of sulfate aerosol particles in the deepest stratosphere air (100–130 ppb N2O) are meteoric ...

A Radio Science Experiment for Dragonfly to Investigate Titan's Rotation and Interior Structure
Abstract NASA's mission Dragonfly to Titan is scheduled for launch in 2028 with arrival in 2034 to study Titan's prebiotic chemistry and habitability. We propose a radio science experiment for Dragonfly, in which radiometric tracking of the rotorcraft from the Deep Space Network, already baselined for communications and navigation, is used as a ...

Meter‐Scale Roughness of the Lunar Surface
Abstract Small‐scale surface roughness is a key indicator of local geological processes, yet it has not previously been mapped globally on the Moon. We present global meter‐scale surface roughness maps generated from the Lunar Orbiter Laser Altimeter pulses, which record information about surface undulations within the instrument's ∼5 m individual ...

Abstract Ultra‐low‐frequency waves in the magnetosphere often produce field line resonances with strong spatial gradients in wave amplitude. We analyze a form of drift resonance driven by these gradients near the resonant field line. This mechanism differs fundamentally from conventional gradient‐ and curvature‐driven drift resonance and predicts an ...

The navigation for Formation flying of spacecraft
Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) is planning the next generation magnetosphere observation mission called 'SCOPE' (cross-Scale Coupling in Plasma universE). SCOPE aims at observing the Earth's magnetotail with five satellites flying in formation to fully resolve the temporary and spatial distribution of the magnetospheric phenomena in the near

Abstract During a 2023 field campaign, a NASA ER‐2 research aircraft intercepted an upward jet‐like electrical discharge at 20 km altitude over an intense tropical thunderstorm. This event was analyzed using airborne multispectral optical sensors, electric field mills, X‐band radar, passive microwave, and ground‐based radio networks.

TerraSAR-X/TanDEM-X Formation Control - First Results from Commissioning and Routine Operations [PDF]
This paper describes the TerraSAR-X / TanDEM-X formation control concept, which bases on the relative eccentricity / inclination vector separation method, implemented within GSOC’s flight dynamics system.

Abstract Along the flank magnetopause, magnetosheath flow interfaced with the relatively stationary magnetosphere produces strong flow shears, and the Kelvin‐Helmholtz instability (KHI) occurs. When the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) is southward, anti‐parallel day‐side reconnection and KHI can interact, which may enhance the reconnection rate as ...
