Are you an academic teacher or a researcher in solar system science or a related field interested in pointing your students to exciting PhD opportunities with us? Would you like to receive our Calls for applications (between one to four times per year) and notifications about new PhD project openings by e-mail so you can forward them to your students? Or are you a student who would like to receive such notifications?

Then we invite you to sign up to our mailing list at

We have #Moissanite crystals that formed in other stars! Dissolve some meteorites almost completely, and some of the residue is SiC -these grains have carbon and silicon isotopes produced in red giant stars and supernova; from before our solar system formed.
