Tracing the main belt origins of S-complex near-Earth objects: From space mission targets to meteorite sources
P. N. Simon, P. Vernazza, M. Marsset +5
Context. Space missions to near-Earth objects (NEOs) provide unique opportunities to study and characterise their physical and compositional properties. Interpreting these results…
The Nysa family as the main source of unequilibrated LL ordinary chondrites
M. Marsset, P. Vernazza, M. Brož +16
Context. The origin of the petrologic diversity observed in ordinary chondrites (OCs), the most common meteorites on Earth, remains debated. Competing models invoke either depth-de…
Hydration Features on Near-Earth Objects: Integrating New Data with Prior Results
Lauren McGraw, Cristina Thomas, Josh Emery +1
Near-Earth objects (NEOs) are excellent laboratories for testing processes that affect airless bodies, as well as informing us about Solar System history. Though most NEOs are nomi…
JWST detection of a carbon dioxide dominated gas coma surrounding interstellar object 3I/ATLAS
Martin A. Cordiner, Nathaniel X. Roth, Michael S. P. Kelley +10
3I/ATLAS is the third confirmed interstellar object to visit our Solar System, and only the second to display a clear coma. Infrared spectroscopy with the James Webb Space Telescop…
Near-Discovery Observations of Interstellar Comet 3I/ATLAS with the NASA Infrared Telescope Facility
Theodore Kareta, Chansey Champagne, Lucas McClure +8
Interstellar Objects are comets and asteroids that formed around other stars but were ejected before they could accrete into exoplanets. They therefore represent a rare opportunity…
Modern Earth-like Chemical Disequilibrium Biosignatures Are Challenging To Constrain Through Spectroscopic Retrievals
Amber Young, Tyler Robinson, Joshua Krissansen-Totton +4
Robust exoplanet characterization studies are underway, and the community is looking ahead toward developing observational strategies to search for life beyond our solar system. Wi…
JWST sighting of decameter main-belt asteroids and view on meteorite sources
Artem Y. Burdanov, Julien de Wit, Miroslav Brož +19
Asteroid discoveries are essential for planetary-defense efforts aiming to prevent impacts with Earth, including the more frequent megaton explosions from decameter impactors. Whil…
JWST Reveals Varied Origins Between Jupiter's Irregular Satellites
Benjamin N. L. Sharkey, Andrew S. Rivkin, Richard J. Cartwright +3
We report observations of eight Jovian irregular satellites with JWST's NIRSpec instrument: Himalia, Elara, Pasiphae, Sinope, Lysithea, Carme, Ananke, and Themisto. Irregular satel…
Comparative Mid-Infrared Spectroscopy of Dark, Primitive Asteroids: Does Shared Taxonomic Class Indicate Shared Silicate Composition?
Oriel A. Humes, Audrey C. Martin, Cristina A. Thomas +1
Primitive asteroids with low albedos and red slopes in the visible and near infrared (VNIR) are found in both the Main Belt and the Jupiter Trojan clouds. In order to determine whe…
The Distribution of Highly Red-sloped Asteroids in the Middle and Outer Main Belt
Oriel A. Humes, Cristina A. Thomas, Lauren E. McGraw
Red (S > 10%/0.1 micron) spectral slopes are common among Centaurs and trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) in the outer solar system. Interior to and co-orbital with Jupiter, the red (S…
The Massalia asteroid family as the origin of ordinary L chondrites
Michaël Marsset, Pierre Vernazza, Miroslav Brož +10
Studies of micrometeorites in mid-Ordovician limestones and Earth's impact craters indicate that our planet witnessed a massive infall of ordinary L chondrite material 466 million…
Successful Kinetic Impact into an Asteroid for Planetary Defense
R. Terik Daly, Carolyn M. Ernst, Olivier S. Barnouin +98
While no known asteroid poses a threat to Earth for at least the next century, the catalog of near-Earth asteroids is incomplete for objects whose impacts would produce regional de…
Orbital Period Change of Dimorphos Due to the DART Kinetic Impact
Cristina A. Thomas, Shantanu P. Naidu, Peter Scheirich +46
The Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) spacecraft successfully performed the first test of a kinetic impactor for asteroid deflection by impacting Dimorphos, the secondary of…
Combined Emerging Capabilities for Near-Earth Objects (NEOs)
S. N. Milam, H. B. Hammel, J. Bauer +10
Assess the joint capabilities of emerging telescopes for near-Earth objects (NEOs) survey and characterization, and what they will add to the current capabilities or replace. NASA…
