Where is a good place to get started in reading about planetary science?

I don't mean popular literature, I mean the actual research and news. I've read a couple of research papers, the one I found most interesting was on redox straification in Gale Crater on Mars (Hurowitz et al, Science, 2017), and I'm not really sure where to go further with this.

I'm a physics undergrad, currently not doing research (will probably get started in biophysics stuff for my undergrad since that's what my school is big in), but I hope to do a PhD in planetary science and I figured now is the best time to get started on learning this stuff.

For terms I don't know in papers I usually just look them up on wiki and keep a notebook of this stuff.

I'm mostly interested in Mars but I'm also curious about moons and minor planets. Remote sensing is one part of it that's pretty interesting to me too, since it's one specialty that I can focus on in planetary science and if academia doesn't work out, it's still useful in the private sector.

So what are some good open access journals and publications I should look into?
