Journal ArticleDOI

Comet 81P/Wild 2 under a microscope.

Donald E. Brownlee, +185 more
- 15 Dec 2006 - 
TL;DR: The Stardust spacecraft collected thousands of particles from comet 81P/Wild 2 and returned them to Earth for laboratory study, and preliminary examination shows that the nonvolatile portion of the comet is an unequilibrated assortment of materials that have both presolar and solar system origin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mineralogy and petrology of comet 81P/wild 2 nucleus samples

Michael E. Zolensky, +75 more
- 15 Dec 2006 - 
TL;DR: The bulk of the comet 81P/Wild 2 samples returned to Earth by the Stardust spacecraft appear to be weakly constructed mixtures of nanometer-scale grains, with occasional much larger ferromagnesian silicates, Fe-Ni sulfides,Fe-Ni metal, and accessory phases.
Journal ArticleDOI

The formation of peak rings in large impact craters

Joanna Morgan, +39 more
- 18 Nov 2016 - 
TL;DR: The only known impact structure on Earth with an unequivocal peak ring is Chicxulub as discussed by the authors, but it is buried and only accessible through drilling, and it is not accessible to the public.
Journal ArticleDOI

Natural (Mg,Fe)SiO3-ilmenite and -perovskite in the Tenham meteorite.

TL;DR: The higher iron concentration in both phases compared with those experimentally reported may suggest their metastable transition from enstatite because of shock compression.
