The future of Stardust science
2017
Meteoritics and Planetary Science
Stardust returned the first samples from a known small solar-system body, the Jupiter-family comet 81P/Wild 2, and, in a separate collector, the first solid samples from the local interstellar medium. ...
They likely contain preserved materials inherited from the protosolar cloud, held in cryogenic storage since the formation of the Solar System. ...
The workshop was supported by NASA and sponsored by the Curation and Planning Team for Extraterrestrial Materials (CAPTEM), a NASA advisory committee ...

The Power of Sample Return Missions - Stardust and Hayabusa
2011
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union
Sample return missions offer opportunities to learn things about other objects in our Solar System (and beyond) that cannot be determined by observations using in situ spacecraft. ...
Despite these difficulties, several recent missions have managed to successfully complete sample returns from a number of Solar System objects. ...

Characteristics of cometary dust tracks in Stardust aerogel and laboratory calibrations
2008
Meteoritics and Planetary Science
Twenty aerogel blocks (out of a total of 132) were removed from the collector tray for a higher resolution optical scan and 186 tracks were observed (track length >50 μm and width >8 μm). ...
The cumulative size distribution of the captured particles was obtained and compared with observations made by active dust detectors during the encounter. ...
PPARC provided support for participation by groups in the United Kingdom. The Natural History Museum provided additional funds to assist in analysis. ...

Physical, Chemical, and Mineralogical Properties of Comet 81P/Wild 2 Particles Collected by Stardust
2008
Earth, moon, and planets
Deposition of material along the entry tracks in aerogel and the presence of compound craters in the Al-foils both indicate that many of the Wild 2 particles in the size range sampled by Stardust are weakly ...

Surface of Young Jupiter Family Comet 81P/Wild 2: View from the Stardust Spacecraft
2004
Science
Green 4 We interpret the nucleus properties and jet activity from the Stardust spacecraft imaging and the onboard dust monitoring system data. ...
The surface is active and yet it retains ancient terrain. Wild 2 appears to be in the early stages of its degradation phase as a small volatile-rich body in the inner solar system. ...

Curation, spacecraft recovery, and preliminary examination for the Stardust mission: A perspective from the curatorial facility
2008
Meteoritics and Planetary Science
The Curation office played a role in the mission from its inception, most critically assisting in the design and implementation of the spacecraft contamination control plan, and in planning and documenting ...
A unique class 100 cleanroom was built to maintain the returned comet and interstellar samples in clean comfort, and to permit dissection and allocation of samples for analysis. ...
Because the samples are both microscopic and fragile, and distributed along impact tracks ranging from tens of micrometers to millimeters in size, it has proven to be a significant challenge to reliably ...

Stardust Interstellar Preliminary Examination II: Curating the interstellar dust collector, picokeystones, and sources of impact tracks
2013
Meteoritics and Planetary Science
The challenge of identifying contemporary interstellar dust impact tracks in aerogel is described within the context of background spacecraft secondaries and possible interplanetary dust particles and ...
In addition, the extraction of microscopic dust embedded in aerogel is technically challenging. ...

Assessment and control of organic and other contaminants associated with the Stardust sample return from comet 81P/Wild 2
2010
Meteoritics and Planetary Science
This C was fortunately not distributed among a complex mixture of organics, but was instead largely present in a few simple forms (mostly as Si-CH 3 groups). ...
Numerous potential sources of organic contaminants could have greatly complicated the interpretation of the organic portions of the samples returned from comet 81P ⁄ Wild 2 by the Stardust spacecraft. ...
Acknowledgments--The efforts reported in this paper spanned more than ten years of the Stardust project and benefited from the support of numerous individuals and funding sources. ...
