Origin of the Lunar Maria [PDF]
Nature, 1966 THE hypothesis proposed by Kopal1 concerning the origin of the lunar maria is very interesting. However, it is important to note that the distribution of lunar craters on the Earth-turned hemisphere is far from uniform. There are significant, well-marked chains approximately aligned with the central meridian as seen from Earth; in the west (classical ...

On the Possible Origin of the Lunar Maria [PDF]
Nature, 1966 RECENT close-up photographs of the lunar surface on the western shores of Oceanus Procellarum, televized back to Earth by the Russian soft-lander Luna 9 on February 4, revealed for the first time the detailed micro-structure of typical mare ground down to a cm–mm scale.

Using deep learning to assess the toxicological effects of sublethal exposure of a novel green pesticide in a stored-product beetle. [PDF]
Pest Manag SciThis study employs an AI‐driven multidisciplinary approach to increase our understanding of the toxicological effects of sublethal concentrations of carlina oxide on Prostephanus truncatus. Sublethal exposure to the carlina oxide induced changes in motor patterns and thigmotaxis, highlighting its potential role in integrated pest management strategies.

The Variability of Lunar Mare Basalt Properties from Surface Rock Abundance
The Planetary Science Journal, 2023 We use the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Diviner Lunar Radiometer Experiment surface rock abundance data set to investigate how rock content changes with surface age in the maria. We find that surface rock abundance decreases with unit age as expected for

The first cosmic ray albedo proton map of the Moon [PDF]
, 2012 [1] Neutrons emitted from the Moon are produced by the impact of galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) within the regolith. GCRs are high-energy particles capable of smashing atomic nuclei in the lunar regolith and producing a shower of energetic protons, neutrons

Diverse Geological Evolution of Impact Basins on the Moon
Remote Sensing, 2022 Impact basins are the dominant landforms on the lunar surface, and their geological evolution varies. This research studied the diversity in the geological evolution of three impact basins: the Dirichlet–Jackson Basin, the Nectaris Basin, and the ...
