Scientific paper

Mercury, while resembling the Moon, has much more volcanism apparent at the surface, and a rich collection of species in the plasma of its magnetosphere, according to first results from NASA's Messenger mission. And there's a mystery, too: there appears to be much less iron in these rocks than expected.
A solar observatory has detected particles from the edge of the solar system, which help to resolve a long-standing puzzle about the heliopause and open the door to a new mapping method.
