The team suspects this division in populations reflects the differences in formation processes between terrestrial planets and massive ... showing an exaggerated example of gravitational lensing ...

Most terrestrial planets have atmospheres, but the conditions on their surfaces would not allow humans to survive there. Venus is the hottest planet in our solar system (despite being further from ...

We study the ~4.5 billion year history of the terrestrial planets of our solar system ... So-called mass independent isotopic measurements (for example of Ti, Ni and Mo) provide invaluable ...

My research focuses on terrestrial planets and moons. I am particularly interested in polar ice caps and their interactions with planetary atmospheres. For example, the polar deposits of Mars record ...

Our research interests have been primarily in understanding the physical processes that control the evolution of terrestrial planets (Earth, Moon, Mars, ...). Modern space exploration has provided ...

Astronomers have discovered that "super-Earth" planets may exist on wider orbits than previously thought — and this implies these rocky, or "terrestrial," worlds are far more common than was suspected ...
