I study how small bodies deliver material to Earth, connecting what telescopic surveys see in space, what wide-field camera networks catch coming in, and what we analyze in the lab afterwards. Across all of it, what reaches the ground is only a filtered sample of what actually hits Earth.
How you tell a real meteoroid family from a coincidence — background models, cumulative similarity, and the 5.3σ detection of a new near-Sun stream. With four interactive tools built on the real data.
Why meteorite collections are a thermally and atmospherically filtered subset of what actually hits Earth, and where the carbonaceous chondrites went.
Most “comet-like” fireballs come from asteroidal material, not comets: long-term integrations show the near-Earth Jupiter-family population is dominated by asteroidal interlopers.
Turning the NEXRAD weather-radar network into an automatic meteorite-fall detector, and working toward fusing radar, optical & infrasound to close the 10–100 m “decametric gap.”
Fireball-network science across the full chain, from astrometry and orbits to drone- and ML-assisted recovery of fresh, orbit-bearing meteorites.
