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…

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
