Lunar impact crater morphological evolution and chronology: A review
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

Lunar maria and related deposits: Preliminary Galileo imaging results [PDF]
During the Earth-Moon flyby the Galileo Solid State Imaging system obtained new information on lunar media. Imaging data in spectral bands from 0.4 to 1.0 micron wavelength provide color data for deposits on the western limb.

New Constraints on the Spatial and Temporal Evolution of the Lunar Surface Regolith
The thickness of the lunar regolith is fundamental for interpreting surface processes, impact chronology, and the thermal and volatile evolution of the Moon, yet its global distribution and long-term history remain debated.
