TESS 2-min cadence photometry of TOI-237 obtained with the TESS automatic aperture. Each of the panels shows the Sectors 2, 29, and 69, respectively. TOI-237 b is highlighted in blue,

The calculation flow in our model. We model the dynamics of gas and dust containing volatile ices and semi-volatile salts to calculate the C, O, N, and S abundances in

Analyzing a precious bit of space dust no bigger than a teaspoon, the Penn State team used custom instruments capable of measuring isotopes, slight variations in the mass of atoms.

The experimental pipeline, from design to characterization, of peptides comprising the Xeno 1 and Xeno 2 amino acid alphabets. Design begins with a library of commercially available amino acids. The

Known potentially-rocky exoplanets within 20 pc. The vast majority of the closest planets are non-transiting and their atmospheres cannot be characterized with currently-available techniques. Data from the NASA Exoplanet Archive,
