Volcanism is a fundamental process in the geological evolution of the Moon, providing clues
to the composition and structure of the mantle, the location and duration of interior melting …

The Moon is a unique body in our Solar System that allows us to groundtruth remotesensing
data (eg, crater size–frequency distributions, or CSFDs, crater/rock degradation rates …

To address questions about the multiple lunar nearside–farside dichotomies and to provide
new insights into both the early impact history of the Solar System and the geological …

As of June 19, 2010, the Lunar Orbiter Laser Altimeter, an instrument on the Lunar
Reconnaissance Orbiter, has collected over 2.0× 109 measurements of elevation that …

Permanently shadowed regions near the poles of Mercury and the Moon may cold-trap
water ice for geologic time periods. In past studies, thick ice deposits have been detected on …

The Moon possesses a clear dichotomy in geological processes between the nearside and
farside hemispheres. The most pronounced expressions of this dichotomy are the strong …

Unravelling the volcanic history of the enigmatic lunar farside is essential for understanding
the hemispheric dichotomy of the Moon1-3. Cratering chronology established for the lunar …

We discovered a vertical hole on the Moon, which is a possible lava tube skylight, using data
from SELENE's two high‐resolution cameras: the Terrain Camera and the Multi‐band …

Von Kármán crater (diameter=~ 186 km), lying in the northwestern South Pole‐Aitken (SPA)
basin, was formed in the pre‐Nectarian. The Von Kármán crater floor was subsequently …

We have provided preliminary global maps of three components of the lunar magnetic
anomaly on the surface applying the surface vector mapping (SVM) method. The data used …
