Abstract This article presents a literature review of studies utilising reflectance spectroscopy in geological research. We describe variety available spectral libraries together with providing examples diagrams, and explain the basic ranges. Geologists can use different methods data collection, for example, sensors mounted on satellites, airborne [including unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) platfo...

Hydrated sodium sulfates have been suggested to be present in variable amounts Solar System objects such as Mars and Europa, among the possible others. The presence of these hydrated species is related current/past aqueous environments, thus has an importance regarding potential habitability planetary objects. In this study, we analyzed anhydrous sulfate (thénardite) (mirabilite) by means visib...
