We conducted impact experiments into SiO2-based aerogel of uniform density (0.02 g cm^(-3)) with spherical corundum projectiles. The highly refractory nature and mechanical strength of corundum minimizes projectile deformation and continuous mass los

We report the discovery that impacts in the Stardust cometary collector are not distributed randomly in the collecting media, but appear to be clustered on scales smaller than ~10 cm. We also report the discovery of at least two populations of obliqu

We briefly describe some of the challenges to the Stardust mission, curation and sample preliminary analysis, from the perspective of the Curation Office at the Johnson Space Center. Our goal is to inform persons planning future sample returns, so th

A series of 59 impacts in the laboratory reduced a coherent 460 g piece of the L6 ordinary chondrite ALH 85017 to a coarse-grained regolith. We then subjected the 125-250 m fines from this sample to reverberation shock stresses of 14.567 GPa in order

We investigated the ballistically dispersed melts from Meteor Crater, Arizona, USA to determine the stratigraphic extent of its melt zone from the compositional relationship of melts and target rocks. Most melt particles are crystallized, hydrated, a

The Orbital Debris Collection (ODC) experiment exposed ∼ 0.6 m 2 of SiO 2 - based aerogel (0.02 g/cm 3 ) for 18 months on the US Docking Module of the Mir space station. Post-flight inspection revealed hundreds of millimeter-sized hypervelocity fea

The debris plumes resulting from penetration experiments using soda-lime glass projectiles (3.2 mm diameter; at 6 km/s) and aluminum 1100-0 targets (1.0 and 0.8 mm thick) were intercepted with blued Cu-witness plates some 6, 12 and 49 cm from the tar

Photographic overvies and first-order interpretations are presented of witness-plate damage patterns that were produced by 3.2 mm diameter (Dp) soda-lime glass projectiles penetrating targets of aluminum1110-0 and aluminum6061-T6, Inconel, lead, and

Approximately 20 sq m of protective thermal blankets, largely composed of Teflon, were retrieved from the Long Duration Exposure Facility after the spacecraft spent approximately 5.7 years in space. Examination of these blankets revealed that they co

Summary Spherical soda-lime glass projectiles 50, 150, 1000 and 3175 μm in diameter (Dp) in aluminum targets (series 1100; “annealed”) of variable thickness T, were used to determine how the penetration-hole diameter (Dh) varied as a function of
