Abstract Launched on 12 Aug. 2018, NASA's Parker Solar Probe had completed 13 of its
scheduled 24 orbits around the Sun by Nov. 2022. The mission's primary science goal is to …

This manuscript represents a review on progress made over the past decade concerning our
understanding of meteoroid bombardment on airless solar system bodies as one of the …

The Wind spacecraft, launched on November 1, 1994, is a critical element in NASA's
Heliophysics System Observatory (HSO)—a fleet of spacecraft created to understand the …

Context. Impacts of dust grains on spacecraft are known to produce typical impulsive signals
in the voltage waveform recorded at the terminals of electric antennas. Such signals (as may …

Abstract Parker Solar Probe's (PSP's) FIELDS instrument provides a measure of the dust
impact rate on the spacecraft with a full-coverage summary of the voltages recorded by the …

The zodiacal cloud is one of the largest structures in the solar system and strongly governed
by meteoroid collisions near the Sun. Collisional erosion occurs throughout the zodiacal …

Hypervelocity impacts on spacecraft surfaces produce a wide range of effects including
transient plasma clouds, surface material ablation, and for some impacts, the liberation of …

Context. On December 27, 2020, Solar Orbiter completed its first gravity assist manoeuvre of
Venus (VGAM1). While this flyby was performed to provide the spacecraft with sufficient …

Context. Dust impacts have been observed using radio and wave instruments onboard
spacecraft since the 1980s. Voltage waveforms show typical impulsive signals generated by …

Abstract Theory and previous space missions indicate there are several populations of
zodiacal dust. The most prominent populations are grains on bound elliptic orbits (α …
