Abstract
Analogical science is science in absentia. Devoid of direct evidence or data sufficient to explain the physical and biochemical processes shaping Mars, Europa, and other non‐terrestrial bodies, planetary scientists seek insight by referring to Earth‐based analogues [ Stone , 1999]. This means searching for a terrestrial source mirroring conditions of a non‐terrestrial target, explaining activity at the target in terms of a theory extrapolated from the source, and then seeking observable evidence at the target to confirm analogical viability. An apt or meaningful analogy narrows the conceptual space between source and target, enabling the scientist to enhance his understanding of a distant target by studying a source closer at hand. Heretofore, there have been no clear rules or general criteria with which to evaluate the aptness or meaningfulness of an interplanetary analogy or terrestrial analogue. To redress this shortcomings three‐rung empirically derived model is proposed.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
