The Mini‐RF radar instrument on the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter spacecraft mapped
both lunar poles in two different RF wavelengths (complete mapping at 12.6 cm S‐band and …

We present a method of conversion of the lunar neutron counting rate measured by the
Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) Lunar Exploration Neutron Detector (LEND) …

The lunar geological record has much to tell us about the earliest history of the Solar
System, the origin and evolution of the Earth–Moon system, the geological evolution of rocky …

It is understood how rocks are made on Earth. However, on the Moon, Mercury, and, to a
lesser extent, Mars and Venus, there are distinct rock-forming processes that we do not fully …

The inversion of regolith thickness over the nearside hemisphere of the Moon from newly
acquired Earth-based 70-cm Arecibo radar data is investigated using a quantitative radar …

Polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is an effective technique to retrieve physical
properties of planetary surfaces, such as the dielectric constant and surface roughness …

Abstract In December 2020, China's Chang'E‐5 (CE‐5) spacecraft successfully collected
1.731 kg samples from Oceanus Procellarum on the Moon's nearside, becoming the first …

Results are presented for the LEND instrument onboard LRO for the detection of local spots
of suppression and excess of epithermal neutron emission at the lunar poles. Twelve local …
