TL;DR: Using synchrotron-based X-ray diffraction measurements, the authors identified crystalline material in two particles of extraterrestrial origin extracted from the Stardust Interstellar Dust Collector.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: For example, this article found that ancient fluvio-lacustrine sedimentary rocks in Gale crater contain up to 35 wt. % phyllosilicates, which are key indicators of past fluid-rock interactions and suggest changes in past aqueous environments that may have been habitable to microbial life.
Journal ArticleDOI
Surface-based 3D measurements of small aeolian bedforms on Mars and implications for estimating ExoMars rover traversability hazards
Matthew R. Balme,Ellen Robson,R. Barnes,Frances E. G. Butcher,Peter Fawdon,Ben Huber,Thomas Ortner,Gerhard Paar,Christoph Traxler,John Bridges,Sanjeev Gupta,Jorge L. Vago +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors estimate the heights of these features, which are too small to measured using High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) Digital Elevation Models (DEMs), from orbital data alone.
Journal ArticleDOI
Discovery of non-random spatial distribution of impacts in the Stardust cometary collector
Andrew J. Westphal,Ron K. Bastien,Janet Borg,John Bridges,Donald E. Brownlee,Mark J. Burchell,Andrew F. Cheng,Benton C. Clark,Z. Djouadi,Christine Floss,Ian A. Franchi,Zack Gainsforth,Giles A.

J. Stadermann,Nicholas Teslich,S. Tsitrin,J. Warren,Penelope J. Wozniakiewicz,Penelope J. Wozniakiewicz,Michael E. Zolensky +31 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported the discovery that impacts in the Stardust cometary collector are not distributed randomly in the collecting media, but appear to be clustered on scales smaller than 10 cm.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Mars Hopper: an impulse driven, long range, long-lived mobile platform utilizing in-situ Martian resources
Steven D. Howe,Robert C. O'Brien,Richard M. Ambrosi,Brian Gross,Jeff Katalenich,Logan Sailer,Mark McKay,John Bridges,Nigel Bannister +8 more
TL;DR: The Mars Hopper concept utilizes energy from radioisotopic decay in a manner different from any existing radioisotonopic power sources as discussed by the authors, as a thermal capacitor, which can be dramatically increased for short periods.
