Lunar impact crater morphological evolution and chronology: A review
地球与行星物理论评Due to the absence of an atmosphere, water, and active tectonic activity, the lunar surface has preserved an intact record of early impact geology in the Solar System, making it a crucial natural laboratory for studying the history of planetary formation

Selection of Lunar South Pole Landing Site Based on Constructing and Analyzing Fuzzy Cognitive Maps
Remote Sensing, 2022 The Permanently Shadowed Regions (PSRs) of the lunar south pole have never been directly sampled. To explore and discover lunar resources, the Chinese lunar south pole exploration mission is scheduled to land in direct sunlight near the PSR, where ...

Simultaneous impact and lunar craters [PDF]
, 1972 The existence of large terrestrial impact crater doublets and crater doublets that have been inferred to be impact craters on Mars suggests that simultaneous impact of two or more bodies can occur at nearly the same point on planetary surfaces.

Shock-Induced Damage in Rocks: Application to Impact Cratering [PDF]
, 2006 Shock-induced damage beneath impact craters is studied in this work. Two representative terrestrial rocks, San Marcos granite and Bedford limestone, are chosen as test target.

MULTI-FACTOR ANALYSIS FOR SELECTING LUNAR EXPLORATION SOFT LANDING AREA AND THE BEST CRUISE ROUTE [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2018 Selecting the right soft landing area and planning a reasonable cruise route are the basic tasks of lunar exploration. In this paper, the Von Karman crater in the Antarctic Aitken basin on the back of the moon is used as the study area, and multi-factor ...

Astronaut's guide to terrestrial impact craters [PDF]
, 1988 Impact cratering of the Earth's surface is discussed and compared with lunar craters. Known craters on earth are ordered by location and a few principal facts are given for each crater and the general terrain in which it is located.

Impact Melt in Small Lunar Highlands Craters [PDF]
, 2011 Impact-melt deposits are a typical characteristic of complex impact craters, occurring as thick pools on the crater floor, ponds on wall terraces, veneers on the walls, and flows outside and inside the rim.
