Astrochemistry: The Physical Chemistry of the Universe, Second Edition by Andrew M. Shaw
This core textbook now includes more detailed information on the kinetic modelling of chemistry in the interstellar medium, extending the same principles of physical chemistry to meteor ablation and finally atmospheres and oceans.

Cosmic dust (Planetary science 🪐)
Cosmic dust – also called extraterrestrial dust, space dust, or star dust – is dust that occurs in outer space or has fallen onto Earth. Most cosmic dust particles measure between a few molecules and 0.1 mm, such as micrometeoroids. Larger particles are called meteoroids. Cosmic dust can be further distinguished b...

Students of spectroscopy are usually introduced to the vibrations of molecules in the gas phase.
But in astrochemistry, molecules probably aren't in the gas phase, but adsorbed and frozen onto the surface of ice. Here, David Benoit from Hull and Victoria Clark from UCL show the importance of including this ice in computational calculations to better predict the spectra we might see on planets and asteroids.
Relaying this from the ALMA Observatory account "over there”…
A Surprise Chemical Find by ALMA May Help Detect and Confirm Protoplanets. Located in the constellation Sagittarius, the young star HD 169142 is host to a giant protoplanet embedded within its dusty, gas-rich protoplanetary disk.
