Improvement of Lunar Surface Dating Accuracy Utilizing Crater Degradation Model: A Case Study of the Chang’e-5 Sampling Area

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
Taking the Chang’e-5 (CE-5) sampling area as an example, this study carried out an investigation on improving the crater size-frequency distribution (CSFD) dating accuracy of lunar surface geologic units based on the crater degradation model.

Lunar Mare Fecunditatis: A Science-Rich Region and a Concept Mission for Long-Distance Exploration

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Mare Fecunditatis is a ~310,000 km2 flat basalt plain located in the low-latitude area of the Moon. Plenty of volcanic features (multiple episodes of mare basalts, sinuous rilles, lava tubes, pyroclastic deposits, domes, irregular mare patches (IMP ...

New Lunar Crater [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1878
I was much interested in the account which your last number (vol. xviii. p. 197) contained of the presumably new lunar crater discovered by Dr. Klein in the Mare Vaporum. Is it really necessary to ascribe the formation of such a crater to present volcanic action?

Accurate Mapping and Evaluation of Small Impact Craters within the Lunar Landing Area

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Impact craters, as the most distinct lunar structural unit and geological structure, are marked on the Moon’s surface. For over a decade, researchers have focused on identifying and exploring large- to medium-sized impact craters on the surface of the ...
