Preliminary Proof of the Feasibility of a Novel Mission Concept and Spacecraft Trajectory for Exploring Uranus with Small Satellites

open access: yesAerospace
Following recommendations from the 2023–2032 Planetary Science and Astrobiology Decadal Survey, we propose a novel Uranus exploration mission that is centered on using constellations of small spacecraft to observe the Uranus system.

The Deep Composition of Uranus and Neptune from In Situ Exploration and Thermochemical Modeling [PDF]

open access: yesSpace Science Reviews, 2020
The distant ice giants of the Solar System, Uranus and Neptune, have only been visited by one space mission, Voyager 2. The current knowledge on their composition remains very limited despite some recent advances.

Detecting an Ocean Inside Callisto With Geodetic Measurements From Europa Clipper and Juice

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract Determining whether Callisto hosts a subsurface ocean, and the implications for material and energy transport through its hydrosphere, is of high interest to NASA's Europa Clipper and ESA's Juice missions. A recent reanalysis of Galileo magnetometer data strengthens the ocean hypothesis, but definitive confirmation awaits new measurements.

Peaking Into Oberon's Past: An Isolated Peak Could Imply the Existence of a Subsurface Ocean or Convecting Ice Shell

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The Uranian moons, last visited in 1986 by Voyager 2, remain an intriguing yet under‐explored set of targets. Understanding the thermal structure and evolution of these moons is key to addressing one of the highest priority goals in planetary science: identifying if any are ocean worlds today or have been in the past. On Oberon, one feature in

Massive Rocky Planets May Suppress Deep Melting

open access: yesAGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Melting properties of silicates are critical to understanding the thermal evolution of rocky planetary interiors. In the deep mantles of massive rocky planets, post‐post‐spinel Mg2SiO4 ${\text{Mg}}_{2}{\text{SiO}}_{4}$ is potentially one of the most abundant mineral phases, yet its melting behavior remains unconstrained. Here, we determine the

A Localized and Surprising Source of Energetic Ions in the Uranian Magnetosphere Between Miranda and Ariel

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
In situ exploration of Uranus has been limited to a single flyby encounter by the Voyager 2 spacecraft in January 1986. Nonetheless, new investigation has led to significant questions about the origin of energetic ions observed in the region between its ...

Uranus's complex internal structure

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Uranus's bulk composition remains unknown. Although there are clear indications that Uranus's interior is not fully convective, and therefore has a non-adiabatic temperature profile, many interior models continue to assume an adiabatic interior.
