Most of the baryons associated with galaxy halos reside in the circumgalactic medium. A significant fraction of the mass is at temperatures well below the halo virial temperature. What holds the cool CGM up? I will present new measurements of the...

NASA’s GRAIL mission to the Moon was completed in 2012 when both spacecraft were intentionally “de-orbited” (i.e. crashed) into a nearside mountainside. This orbital mission measured tiny variations in the Moon’s gravitational field by continuously...

Until recently the number of "benchmark stars" --- stars having empirically measured radii, masses, and other properties with the few-percent accuracy needed to stringently test stellar models --- was of order 10^1. These crucial stellar benchmarks...
