Proposal of a new category of lunar regolith simulants: Reduced particle-density simulants that exhibit equivalent self-weight in Earth gravity to native regolith in lunar gravity Open
Current “normal density” lunar regolith simulants used in Earth gravity can be viewed as a poor replication of bulk material handling behaviour of lunar regolith in lunar gravity. The six-times greater self-weight of such normal simulants …

Correlations Between Life-Detection Techniques and Implications for Sampling Site Selection in Planetary Analog Missions Open
We conducted an analog sampling expedition under simulated mission constraints to areas dominated by basaltic tephra of the Eldfell and Fimmvörðuháls lava fields (Iceland). Sites were selected to be "homogeneous" at a coarse remote sensing…

Planetary science and exploration in the deep subsurface: results from the MINAR Program, Boulby Mine, UK Open
The subsurface exploration of other planetary bodies can be used to unravel their geological history and assess their habitability. On Mars in particular, present-day habitable conditions may be restricted to the subsurface. Using a deep s…

Demonstration of a multi-technique approach to assess glacial microbial populations in the field Open
The ability to perform microbial detection and characterization in-field at extreme environments, rather than on returned samples, has the potential to improve the efficiency, relevance and quantity of data from field campaigns. To date, f…
