Context. The current period is conducive to exploring our Solar System's origins with recent
and future space sample return missions, which provide invaluable information from known …

We report a comprehensive study of the ungrouped type 2 carbonaceous chondrite, Tarda,
which fell in Morocco in 2020. This meteorite exhibits substantial similarities to Tagish Lake …

Porosity affects key astromaterial processes from disruption in our atmosphere and impact
with the ground, to the comminution of boulders by thermal and impact processes and slope …

The matrix of the C2‐ungrouped Tarda meteorite contains abundant smectite minerals that
swell and crumble when exposed to polar liquids, causing the sample to rapidly slake. This …

The study of organic molecules in meteorite and return samples allows for the
understanding of the chemistry that undergoes in our Solar System. The present work aims …

Tarda is an ungrouped, hydrated carbonaceous chondrite (C2‐ung) that was seen to fall in
Morocco in 2020. Early studies showed that Tarda chemically resembles another ungrouped …

Chemical states of carbon in terrestrial (meta) sediments and carbonaceous chondrites
gather attention as a geothermometer. As a nondestructive analytical method, Raman …

To deeply explore the solar system, it will be necessary to become less reliant on the
resupply tether to Earth. An approach explored in this study is to convert hydrocarbons in …
