2018. My blog posts about planetary systems orbiting black holes (here, here and here) were featured in the press (see here and here).
2018. Our new, 'Early Instability' model for Solar System formation (which provides an alternative to other models like the Grand Tack) was featured in several articles (e.g., here and here). Paper here. My blog post (also picked up by the Planetary Society) here.
2018. My blog post about how to build a planetary system in which a planet remains in permanent daytime was featured in a Space.com article.
2018. Two papers that I wrote about the origins and nature of 'Oumuamua -- the first interstellar object -- were featured in the press. See here (for a time it was the top story on nasa.gov), here and here. Scientific papers here and here. My blog posts here and here.
2017. Our paper on the fate of exomoons when gas giant planets go unstable was featured by New Scientist. (PDF version here. My blog post here).
2017. My new paper about the "empty primordial asteroid belt" was published in Science Advances and featured in a number of news stories (a few examples here, here and here; my blog post here).
2017. My paper demonstrating a new (simpler and more robust) origin for Earth's water was featured by Seeker.com and Sci-News.com. (Full paper here. My blog post here).
2017. My blog post about how to pack more than 400 planets onto stable orbits within a Sun-like star's habitable zone was picked up by IFLScience.
2017. I was part of the team that discovered the 7-Earth-sized-planet TRAPPIST-1 system. I wrote a poem for my blog that was picked up by the press.
2016. Our work on the habitability of Proxima b got a lot of press (including a poem on my blog)
2016. In a blog post I proposed that Planet Nine may be an exoplanet captured from another star. That stimulated a project confirming this possibility, and the ensuing paper was featured in the news. Scientific paper here: Mustill et al (2016).
2016. My paper proposing that Jupiter's core may have formed very close to the Sun was featured in Science News. (Original article here).
2015. My Aeon article about life on free-floating planets was picked up by several news outlets (see here).
2015. All sorts of press coverage for our Nature paper about the origin of the similar compositions of the Earth and Moon. My blog post here. Full paper here: Mastrobuono-Battisti et al 2015.
2015. Press release for our paper on "chaotic Earths" (full paper here: Barnes et al 2015).
2014. My blog (planetplanet.net) was featured in New Scientist and a few other places (such as on Kottke.org) as well as in Dr. Karl Kruszelnicki's book, Game of Karls. Based on my post about building the ultimate Solar System.
2014. I was profiled for Astrobiology magazine after my talk at the Habitable Worlds across Space and Time conference (at Space Telescope Science Institute). You can see the talk here.
2014. I played a key role in the discovery of Kepler-186f, an Earth-sized planet in the habitable zone of a cool star. Here is my blog post. The official SETI press release. Here is a local news article (in french). Here is one short TV interview (in french). Based on our paper in Science (Quintana et al 2014).
2014. Using the abundance of siderophile elements in Earth's crust as a clock for the age of the Moon. Funny short video here. Bordeaux-based press release (in french) here. Based on our paper in Nature: Jacobson et al 2014.
2014. Does Vega host a planetary system? (Possible interpretation from its dust populations). Based on this paper.
