Passing Stars As An Important Driver of Paleoclimate And The Solar System’s Orbital Evolution
Reconstructions of the paleoclimate indicate that ancient climatic fluctuations on Earth are often correlated with variations in its orbital elements.
Predicting Interstellar Object Chemodynamics With Gaia
The interstellar object population of the Milky Way is a product of its stars. However, what is in fact a complex structure in the Solar neighbourhood has traditionally in ISO […]
Moving Toward Stellar Cartography: AstroInformatics Recommendations for Global Cooperation
Policy Brief on “AstroInformatics, Recommendations for Global Collaboration”, distilled from panel discussions during S20 Policy Webinar on Astroinformatics for Sustainable Development held on 6-7 July 2023.
Mapping Exoplanets
The varied surfaces and atmospheres of planets make them interesting places to live, explore, and study from afar.
New Global Topographic Map Unveils Unique Distortions On Enceladus
A team of scientists has produced the first complete and comprehensive global topographic map of Saturn’s active icy moon Enceladus, revealing that it is even more distorted than previously thought. […]
Transit Least-squares Survey IV. Earth-like Transiting Planets Expected From The PLATO Mission
In its long-duration observation phase, the PLATO satellite will observe two non-overlapping fields for a total of 4 yr. The exact duration of each pointing will be determined 2 yr […]
Planet Cartography With Neural Learned Regularization
Finding potential life harboring exo-Earths is one of the aims of exoplanetary science. Detecting signatures of life in exoplanets will likely first be accomplished by determining the bulk composition of […]
