Neutron scans reveal hidden water in famous martian meteorite

New tools unlock new discoveries in science. So when a new type of non-destructive technology becomes widely available, it’s inevitable that planetary scientists will get their hands on it to test it on some meteorites. A new paper, available on the arXiv preprint server, by Estrid Naver of the Technical University of Denmark and her co-authors, describes the use of two of those (relatively) new tools to one of the most famous meteorites in the world—NWA 7034—also known as Black Beauty.
