Doubling Sunlight for a Human Mars Base With Orbiting Solar Reflectors
Ari Essunfeld, Yuji Takubo, Adrian Dumitrescu +4
The Sun's faintness at Mars' orbit makes producing energy, melting ice, and staying warm more difficult. Orbiting solar reflectors (OSRs) can augment sunlight at Mars, but the area…
A research roadmap for assessing the feasibility of warming Mars
E. S. Kite, A. Essunfeld, M. H. Hecht +22
This roadmap outlines research pathways to determine whether Mars could be warmed with non-biological methods. It does not presuppose that warming Mars is desirable; its purpose is…
Modelling the long-term impacts of artificial warming on the Martian water cycle and surface ice distribution
Ashwin S. Braude, Edwin S. Kite, Mark I. Richardson +2
Recent papers by Ansari et al. (2024, Science Advances 10, eadn4650) and Richardson et al. (2025, arXiv eprint 2504.01455) have suggested that global warming of the Martian surface…
A roadmap for the atmospheric characterization of terrestrial exoplanets with JWST
TRAPPIST-1 JWST Community Initiative, :, Julien de Wit +80
Ultra-cool dwarf stars are abundant, long-lived, and uniquely suited to enable the atmospheric study of transiting terrestrial companions with JWST. Amongst them, the most prominen…
Exogeoscience and Its Role in Characterizing Exoplanet Habitability and the Detectability of Life
Cayman T. Unterborn, Paul K. Byrne, Ariel D. Anbar +24
The search for exoplanetary life must encompass the complex geological processes reflected in an exoplanet's atmosphere, or we risk reporting false positive and false negative dete…
