Predicted Ejecta Dynamics and Observability of the 2026 Falcon 9 Upper Stage Lunar Impact
William Jo, David B. Goldstein, Philip L. Varghese +3
On Aug. 5 at 06:34 UTC, a Falcon 9 upper stage (~3,900 kg) will strike the lunar surface at 2.43 km/s, yielding a potentially visible debris plume. We present a study of the expect…
Transport of water in a Transient, Impact-Generated Atmosphere on Mercury
Jordan K. Steckloff, David B. Goldstein, Philip L. Varghese +2
Mercury's polar cold traps host water ice deposits that are likely populated with impact-delivered water via Mercury's exosphere. However, Mercury's near-sun location experiences a…
Exosphere-Mediated Migration of Volatile Species On Airless Bodies Across the Solar System
Jordan K. Steckloff, David Goldstein, Laurence Trafton +2
Surface-bound exospheres facilitate volatile migration across the surfaces of nearly airless bodies. However, such transport requires that the body can both form and retain an exos…
