We report on the detection in southern Egypt of an impact crater 45 meters diameter with a pristine rayed structure. Such structures are typically observed atmosphereless rocky or icy planetary bodies solar system. This feature and association iron meteorite impactor shock metamorphism provides unique picture small-scale hypervelocity impacts Earth's crust. Contrary to current geophysical models, ground data indicate that meteorites masses order tens tons can penetrate atmosphere without...

We present the results of a Jupiter Trojans' light curve survey aimed at characterizing rotational properties Trojans in approximate size range 60–150 km. The survey, which was designed to provide reliable and unbiased estimates rotation periods amplitudes, resulted curves for total 80 objects, 56 represent first determinations published date nine supersede previously erroneous values.

Between 2003 and 2012, 605 southern right whales (SRW; Eubalaena australis) were found dead along the shores of Península Valdés (PV), Argentina. These deaths included alarmingly high annual losses between 2007 a peak number (116) in significant across years calves-of-the-year (544 [89.9%]; average = 60.4 yr(-1)). Post-mortem examination pathogen testing performed on 212 whales; 208 (98.1%) 48.0% these newborns or neonates. A known probable cause death was established only small (6.6%)...
ABSTRACT Two meteorite pieces have been recovered in Italy, near the town of Cavezzo (Modena), on 2020 January 4th. The associated fireball was observed evening New Year’s Day by eight all-sky cameras PRISMA network, a partner FRIPON. computed trajectory had an inclination angle approximately 68° and velocity at infinity 12.8 km s−1. Together with relatively low terminal height, estimated as 21.5 km, those values were indicating significant possibility dropping event, additionally confirmed...
Abstract We use our new light curves, along with historical data, to determine the rotation state, photometric properties, and convex shape models of targets Lucy mission (3548) Eurybates (21900) Orus. a retrograde spin for both targets, sidereal periods 8.7027283 ± 0.0000029 h 13.486190 0.000017 h, respectively. The phase curves objects are nearly linear in phase-angle range observable from Earth lack pronounced opposition effect. Unsupervised classification these by Penttilä et al. tool...
We report complete near-infrared (0.9-2.4 μm) spectral observations of trans-neptunian objects (TNOs) 2000 EB173 and WR106 collected using the new Near Infrared Camera Spectrometer (NICS) attached to 3.56 m Telescopio Nazionale Galileo (TNG). Both spectra are very red with a quite strong broad drop extending throughout K band. However, while does not show any evidence narrow absorption features, spectrum has deep water ice at 1.5 2.0 μm. Moreover, latter object is significantly less than...
