Abstract Prolonged exposure to weightlessness leads to loss of muscle and bone mass. Therefore, astronauts on board the International Space Station (ISS) currently perform mandatory daily exercises. ISS missions usually last 6 months, and future missions will become significantly longer when going, for example, to Mars.

Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight
Abstract Crewed interplanetary return missions that are on the planning horizon will take years, more than enough time for initiation and completion of a pregnancy. Pregnancy is viewed as a sequence of processes – fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation, gastrulation, placentation, organogenesis, gross morphogenesis, birth and neonatal ...

Towards A Census of Earth-mass Exo-planets with Gravitational Microlensing
Thirteen exo-planets have been discovered using the gravitational microlensing technique (out of which 7 have been published). These planets already demonstrate that super-Earths (with mass up to ~10 Earth masses) beyond the snow line are common and ...

Building a Continental‐Scale Geodetic Network: The Plate Boundary Observatory (PBO)
Abstract The Plate Boundary Observatory (PBO) transformed the use of geodesy in North America to study crustal deformation and plate boundary processes by establishing a continental‐scale, standardized, open‐access geodetic network. Built and operated by UNAVCO between 2003 and 2018 as part of the National Science Foundation (NSF)‐funded EarthScope ...

Open‐Source Multinuclear Low‐Field Preclinical MRI Scanner
A step‐by‐step guideline for the construction of an open‐source multinuclear low‐field MRI scanner for preclinical studies is presented together with the first images acquired with the device. The scanner can detect 1H, 23Na, hyperpolarized 13C, and 15N signals at 66 mT. ABSTRACT Low‐field MRI (B0 ≤ 0.2 T) is emerging as a technology with the potential

Terrestrial Analogs to Titan for Geophysical Research
Abstract Saturn's moon Titan exhibits remarkable parallels to the Earth in many geophysical and geological processes not found elsewhere in the solar system at the present day. These include a nitrogen atmosphere with a condensible gas—methane—replacing the Earth's water, leading to an active meteorology with rainfall and surface manifestations ...

ABSTRACT Marine aquaculture is expanding globally, yet its interactions with surrounding ecosystems remain complex and insufficiently understood. This study reviews the fluxes of energy and nutrients from three major aquaculture systems: finfish cages, suspended bivalves, and seaweed farms and considers their implications for ecosystem functioning and ...

Wilson's Atmospheric Electron Accelerator: A Centennial Perspective
Abstract As of the time of writing this letter, we mark the centennial of Wilson's runaway electrons proposed in 1925. Owing to instrumentation limitations, Wilson and his students could not detect the particles anticipated by theory Chilingarian et al. (2025, https://doi.org/10.1029/2024jd042350).

A large‐aperture, high focusing efficiency and polarization‐independent THz single‐layer achromatic metalens is reported via discrete multi‐wavelength achromatic design and global optimization algorithm. The fabricated metalens exhibits a largest diameter of 2.21 cm, excellent achromatic performance, extremely high average focusing efficiency (> 46 ...
