The asteroid (16) Psyche may be the metal-rich remnant of a differentiated planetesimal, or it
may be a highly reduced, metal-rich asteroidal material that never differentiated. The NASA …

Extra-terrestrial mining and metal processing are vital for access to strategic metals for
space exploration. This study demonstrates for the first time the catalytic dissolution of …

The NASA Psyche mission will explore the structure, composition, and other properties of
asteroid (16) Psyche to test hypotheses about its formation. Variations in radar reflectivity …

Despite the prevalence of transient-searching facilities operating across most wavelengths,
the ultraviolet (UV) transient sky remains to be systematically studied. Therefore, we recently …

Astronomical observations indicate that asteroid (16) Psyche is a large, high‐density (likely>
3,400 kg· m− 3), metal‐rich (30–55 vol.%) asteroid. Psyche may be remnant core material or …

Harboring both the solar system's ancient past and its bountiful resources, asteroids are
perhaps the best-suited targets of opportunity for resource extraction and a source of usable …

We have characterized the far‐ultraviolet (FUV) spectro‐photometric response of lunar soil
simulants JSC‐1A and LMS‐1, reporting notable differences from our previous results for …

The Neil–Gehrels Swift Observatory has added extensively to our understanding of small
bodies in our solar system through its capabilities to rapidly respond to short-live events …

In diesem Kapitel wird die strategische Bedeutung von Space Mining, dem Abbau von
Ressourcen im Weltraum, erörtert. In den Blick genommen werden zum einen der …

Extra-terrestrial mining is vital for access to strategic metals for space exploration and to feed
an increasing terrestrial need for metals in sustainable energy generation and storage. This …
