TL;DR: The Stardust Interstellar Dust Collector captured seven particles and returned to Earth for laboratory analysis have features consistent with an origin in the contemporary interstellar dust stream and more than 50 spacecraft debris particles were also identified as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Shock synthesis of amino acids from impacting cometary and icy planet surface analogues
TL;DR: In this article, high-velocity impact experiments into icy targets suggest that impacts involving icy planetary bodies could be a viable pathway to synthesize the complex organic compounds needed for life.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, a new experimental calibration program firing very small monodisperse silica projectiles (470-nm-10-μm) at approximately 6-km−s−1 was described.

TL;DR: The Long-Wavelength Spectrometer (LWS) is one of two complementary spectrometers aboard the European Space Agency's Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) (Kessler et al., 1996) as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interpretation of Wild 2 dust fine structure: Comparison of Stardust aluminum foil craters to the three‐dimensional shape of experimental impacts by artificial aggregate particles and meteorite powders

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the majority of large Wild 2 dust grains (i.e., those carrying most of the cometary dust mass) probably had density of 2.4 g cm^(-3) or greater, and porosity of 25% or less, akin to consolidated carbonaceous chondrite meteorites, and therefore relatively high density.
