More on the recent success of the @belspo ULTIMO Antarctic expedition is also reported in @destandaard! Indeed, the success is not only within the large number of astromaterials collected, but also their large diversity! ☄️(In Dutch) standaard.be/cnt/dmf20250118…

Research teams from the @ULBruxelles and @VUBrussel have begun their trip to Antarctica and are excited to get back to work on the ice! There are two big research projects that these teams will be focusing on: ULTIMO and FROID 🧊☄️Follow link to learn more bit.ly/3Z7Ja5I

Scientists have pinpointed the origin and composition of the asteroid that caused the mass extinction 66 million years ago, revealing it was a rare carbonaceous asteroid from beyond Jupiter, according to a new study in Science. 📄: scim.ag/83F

New evidence points to the giant space rock that killed the dinosaurs being a carbonaceous chondrite, an ancient and rare type of meteorite. By me for @NewsfromScience science.org/content/article/…

Huilin Jin, a current member of our team, has been doing great work extracting fossil micrometeorites from rocks dating hundreds of millions of years! These "grains", although tiny, could provide large amounts of knowledge on the Earth’s ancient dusty interplanetary environment!

What do meteorites have to do with climate change? @VeroTollenaar, @HarryZeko et al show that ~5,000 meteorties become inaccessible per year as they melt into the Antarctic due to climate change go.nature.com/3U9knwV

Onderzoek door geologen @AMGC_VUB @VUBrussel in de meteorietinslag die het einde van het dinotijdperk inluidde duidt op minder CO2 uitstoot dan eerder gedacht, maar was daarom niet minder dodelijk. press.vub.ac.be/vub-geologen…
