The FLUX project aims to extract and analyze fossil micrometeorites from geological layers to understand the historical cosmic dust flux to Earth. By examining these particles, the project seeks to shed light on the interactions between the Solar System and Earth over geological time scales.
For the last 4.5 billion years, extraterrestrial (ET) materials have continuously bombarded the Earth.
Today, the Solar System debris that reaches the Earth’s surface is dominated by particles less than 2 mm in size, termed micrometeorites (MMs).
Until recently, the established misconception was that these MMs did not survive geological timescales, limiting reconstructions of the dust flux through time that are currently based on finding rare relict mineral phases or applying geochemical tools (…
