Summary: Continuous missions to various destinations in space, such as Low-Earth Orbit, the Moon, and Mars, involve a wide range of actors and objectives, from scientific exploration to commercial exploitation. In order to support these missions and reduce transportation efforts, in-situ resource utilization, such as water and fuel extraction, is planned. This paper explores the concepts of sustainable development and sustainability in relation to spaceflight, discussing how these concepts have evolved over time and their implications for evaluating mission scenarios and roadmaps.

Summary: The water content of the upper layers of the surface of Mars is not yet quantified, and laboratory simulations are the only feasible way to investigate this issue. The processes that induce changes in the water content of the Martian surface are critical for determining its habitability and water extraction efficiency.

Summary: This study presents a statistical-mechanical strategy to forecast volcanic hazard in regions of distributed volcanism. Through experimental observations and parameter sampling, researchers successfully predict the arrival points of subsequent cracks. The approach effectively retrieves the ratio of stress parameters, even though individual stress parameters remain unconstrained.

Summary: In this paper, quantum metrology techniques were applied to estimate the deficit angle parameter in cosmic string spacetime within the relativistic framework. The quantum Fisher information (QFI) was calculated to determine the precision of estimation, which depended on various factors including the deficit angle, evolution time, detector initial state, polarization direction, and position. Optimal estimation strategies were identified to maximize the QFI and optimize the precision. The results showed that the QFIs exhibited different behaviors and magnitudes for different polarization cases, which could provide insights into the exploration of cosmic string spacetime.

Summary: Visible light communication (VLC) is a data connection technology that uses light energy modulation at a short range. The article proposes an open system integrating a programmable VLC front-end and a robust back-end based on a field-programmable gate array (FPGA) to address the challenge of implementing calculation-demanding modulation/demodulation techniques in real-time and ultralow latency environments. The system allows users to implement various low-latency VLC applications by modifying a minimal part of the code, and it is demonstrated to achieve high-speed and reliable data transmission.

Summary: Several space missions have visited and will land on Mars to search for life. The Mars 2020 Perseverance rover and the upcoming ExoMars Rosalind Franklin rover are equipped with Raman spectroscopic systems to identify rocks, minerals, and potential organic biosignatures on the Martian surface. The analysis of data from these missions faces challenges, and studying new volcanic analogues on Earth, such as the Cha similar to das Caldeiras site, can help overcome these challenges. The site exhibits similarities to volcanic places in the Canary Islands and provides pristine samples of volcanic minerals.

Summary: Post-transcriptional RNA modification is a powerful method for site-specific RNA labelling and analysis of RNA functions. A ribozyme called SAMURI has been developed that can catalyse the transfer of a propargyl group to a specific adenosine on the target RNA within cells, offering a general tool for site-specific RNA labelling that can be further functionalized.

Summary: The objective of this study was to estimate the dynamic evolution of the Planetary Boundary Layer (PBL) height using advanced remote sensing measurements. The study found that reasonable estimates of the boundary-layer height can be obtained using different methods and products under certain conditions. The study also revealed that in coastal regions, the daytime evolution of the boundary layer is limited and wind speed and direction play a decisive role in its formation.

Summary: The Mars Sample Return (MSR) Campaign requires various scientific and technical achievements to be successful. The responsibilities for engineering have been established, while the roles of the scientific elements are yet to be fully defined. The MSR Science Planning Group 2 (MSPG2) was formed to develop an end-to-end science program and design requirements for a Sample Receiving Facility (SRF). The group produced reports highlighting 66 findings, including the need for concurrent curation and biosafety containment, the requirement for long-term funding and resources, and the importance of immediate preparations for sample return.

Summary: Dust in the martian atmosphere is scientifically interesting and has relevance for future human missions. The MSR Campaign presents an opportunity to return valuable dust samples, which could inform our understanding of Mars' mineralogy, surface processes, and atmospheric circulation. Preliminary calculations suggest that the collected dust could be used for laboratory analyses, and steps should be taken to optimize the collection and recovery of this dust.

Summary: The Maaz formation and the Content member in Jezero crater consist of different lava flows and/or pyroclastic flows with complex textures. They display low magnesium content and a wide diversity in compositions and textures compared to other Martian igneous rocks. The study of returned Maaz samples will contribute to understanding the formation processes, improving crater counting techniques, and enhancing our knowledge of magmatism on Mars.

Summary: We conducted a combined analysis of crater floor rocks in Jezero crater using geomorphologic, multispectral, and geochemical data obtained by the Mast Camera Zoom and SuperCam instruments onboard the NASA Mars 2020 Perseverance rover. Our study allows us to interpret the origins of rocks exposed along the Artuby ridge, which are predominantly lava flows with some layers formed by weathering, volcanic ash deposition, or wind-borne sediment deposition. These findings provide crucial geological context for the Maaz formation samples that will be returned to Earth and highlight the diversity and complexity of geologic processes on Mars.

Summary: Some carbonaceous chondrites contain prebiotic organics that may have played a role in the origin of life. This study investigates the formation and evolution of complex organic molecules under meteorite parent body conditions. The abundance of certain amines and amino acids remains consistent before and after aqueous alteration, suggesting the influence of parental cloud conditions. However, most of the studied amines and amino acids show varying abundances after aqueous processing, indicating the influence of meteorite parent body processing. The presence of interstellar organics in solar system objects is supported by the efficient transfer of volatile amines.

Summary: Scientists have found uracil from the asteroid sample, which may have played a role in the early chemical evolution on Earth. They also discovered other organic molecules, including racemic amino acids. This study strongly suggests that prebiotic molecules like uracil commonly formed in carbonaceous asteroids and were delivered to the early Earth.

Summary: The first samples collected by the Mars 2020 mission from the Jezero Crater floor contain evidence of igneous lithologies and aqueous activity, including major rock-forming minerals and various water-soluble minerals. Analysis of these samples will provide insights into the geological processes and the planet's interior at the time of rock formation, as well as the timing and conditions of aqueous activity. The returned samples will also help to understand the crater chronology of Mars and the habitability of Jezero Crater.
