Lynx2030 Science Analysis Group, Simon R. Bandler, Laura W. Brenneman +51
The Lynx2030 Science Analysis Group (SAG) was convened to reassess the scientific goals and technical drivers of the Lynx mission concept amid a rapidly evolving astrophysics lands…
Research Programs Arising from 'Oumuamua Considered as an Alien Craft
Martin Elvis
The controversial hypothesis that 'Oumuamua (1I/2017 U1) was an alien craft dominated by a solar sail is considered using known physics for the two possible cases: controlled and u…
Tall Towers on the Moon
Sephora Ruppert, Amia Ross, Joost Vlassak +1
The lunar South pole likely contains significant amounts of water in the permanently shadowed craters there. Extracting this water for life support at a lunar base or to make rocke…
Hubble Space Telescope Observations of [O~III] Emission in Nearby QSO2s: Physical Properties of the Ionised Outflows
Anna Trindade Falcao, S. B. Kraemer, T. C. Fischer +14
We use Hubble Space Telescope (HST)/ Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) long-slit G430M and G750M spectra to analyse the extended [O~III] 5007A emission in a sample of twe…
X-ray Studies of Planetary Systems: A 2020 Decadal Survey White Paper
Jaesub Hong, Suzanne Romaine, Larry Nittler +5
Whether it is fluorescence emission from asteroids and moons, solar wind charge exchange from comets, exospheric escape from Mars, pion reactions on Venus, sprite lighting on Satur…
