M stars as targets for terrestrial exoplanet searches and biosignature detection
The changing view of planets orbiting low mass stars, M stars, as potentially hospitable
worlds for life and its remote detection was motivated by several factors, including the …

Harnessing the GPS data explosion for interdisciplinary science
Steamboat Geyser in Yellowstone National Park's Norris Geyser Basin began a prolific
sequence of eruptions in March 2018 after 34 y of sporadic activity. We analyze a wide …

Macromolecular organic compounds from the depths of Enceladus
Saturn's moon Enceladus harbours a global water ocean 1, which lies under an ice crust
and above a rocky core 2. Through warm cracks in the crust 3 a cryo-volcanic plume ejects …

Enceladus's measured physical libration requires a global subsurface ocean
Several planetary satellites apparently have subsurface seas that are of great interest for,
among other reasons, their possible habitability. The geologically diverse saturnian satellite …
