... thin section shows that the primordial magmatic texture appears altered by tectonic and metamorphic events: plagioclase crystals show recrystallisation due to tectonic stress (Figure 3), with some larger clasts remaining in the finer feldspar matrix...
... on the station alongside, along with conducting around 30 scientific experiments. This will include growing protein crystals, melting metal alloys in a weightless environment and measuring the effects of brain pressure whilst being in space...
..., or hybridise, two different sources," said Jolliff. Scientists are thus suggesting that late in the magma-ocean crystallization process, iron-rich pyroxene and ilmenite, which formed late and at the crust-mantle boundary, might...
... will have some element of science or technology in it, from computer coding, maths demonstrations, fitness, nutrition to growing crystals. Pesquet, who is championing the cause for science- and space-based careers, is determined to make Proxima...
... craft is also carrying research materials that includes an experiment to develop medicines that counter drug resistance and a crystal growth experiment that will crystallise a monoclonal antibody that is undergoing clinical trials for the treatment...
..., UK, can ‘unlock’ this information by producing 3D images which are then mapped to reveal the history of individual crystals of olivine. Dr. Matt Pankhurst of Instituto Volcanológico de Canarias and NASA lunar principle investigator explains; “With...
