Description
QUE94281, the newest basaltic lunar meteorite, is a complex regolith breccia with abundant glass. This glass occurs in a variety of forms and compositions; fusion crust, splash glass coating, glass veins and glass beads. In both mineralogy and composition the breccia is intermediate between highland and mare rocks, but closer to mare samples. It is very similar to lunar meteorite Y-792374 and may be derived from the same site on the Moon.

    Massive characterisation of subgiants and red giants with TESS (Kepler and Gaia)
    TESS serves as a formidable tool for investigating stellar variability. Nonetheless, the adaptation of methodologies employed in other space missions, such as Kepler, to deduce long stellar rotation periods or solar-like stellar pulsations has been a challenge. The advent of multiple sectors of data for most stars every two years with the extended

    a Study of Post-Agb Stars in the Light of GAIA DR3 Data
    Low and intermediate-mass stars evolve through the Post Asymptotic Giant Branch (post-AGB) phase before they reach the Planetary Nebulae stage. After leaving the Main Sequence, they undergo intense episodes of mass loss when in the Giant Branch and, then, they enter the post-AGB stage which is a rather puzzling stellar evolutionary phase . Also, it
