No reviews for closed-access journals in planetary science We will not review manuscripts for closed-access journals Scientific research in the field of planetary science is often, if not exclusively, undertaken using public funds, and the output of most research is published in scientific journals so that others may use and build upon the results. When scientific research is…

Signatories: Open source signing of statements and petitions for planetary science Have you ever needed to collect signatures to support a white paper, a mission concept or a proposal? Or have you ever organized some kind a petition that needed community support? If so, you probably realized that there are no good solutions. Many people use forms or shared spreadsheets, but…
