Habitable from the start: How initial planetary formation conditions may create habitable worlds
Benjamin J. Farcy, Darryl Z. Seligman, Kathleen E. Mandt +2
The breadth of topics that encompass the search for life has expanded and evolved significantly since the emergence of the field of astrobiology. Initial astrobiology centered inve…
Comparing NASA Discovery and New Frontiers Class Mission Concepts for the Io Volcano Observer (IVO)
Christopher W. Hamilton, Alfred S. McEwen, Laszlo Keszthelyi +31
Jupiter's moon Io is a highly compelling target for future exploration that offers critical insight into tidal dissipation processes and the geology of high heat flux worlds, inclu…
Insights on the Formation Conditions of Uranus and Neptune from their Deep Elemental Compositions
Olivier Mousis, Antoine Schneeberger, Thibault Cavalié +6
This study, placed in the context of the preparation for the Uranus Orbiter Probe mission, aims to predict the bulk volatile compositions of Uranus and Neptune. Using a protoplanet…
Triton and Pluto: same origin but separated at birth
Olivier Mousis, Sarah E. Anderson, Adrienn Luspay-Kuti +2
Assessing the origin of Pluto and Triton has profound implications for the bigger picture of Solar System formation and evolution. In such a context, this chapter reviews our curre…
Recipes for forming a carbon-rich giant planet
Olivier Mousis, Thibault Cavalié, Jonathan I. Lunine +9
The exploration of carbon-to-oxygen ratios has yielded intriguing insights into the composition of close-in giant exoplanets, giving rise to a distinct classification: carbon-rich…
Exogenic origin for the volatiles sampled by the Lunar CRater Observation and Sensing Satellite impact
Kathleen E Mandt, Olivier Mousis, Dana Hurley +4
Returning humans to the Moon presents an unprecedented opportunity to determine the origin of volatiles stored in the permanently shaded regions (PSRs), which trace the history of…
