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.

Recent Tectonic Deformation of the Lunar Farside Mare and South Pole–Aitken Basin
The Planetary Science JournalThe timing and scale of lunar tectonism provide a crucial insight into the geologic evolution of Earth’s Moon. Within the nearside lunar maria, wrinkle ridges formed during and after the emplacement of the mare basalts as a result of subsidence-induced ...

Chronology of the Basalt Units Surrounding Chang’e-4 Landing Area
Remote Sensing, 2021 The Chang’e-4 (CE-4) lunar probe, the first soft landing spacecraft on the far side of the Moon, successfully landed in the Von Kármán crater on 3 January 2019. Geological studies of the landing area have been conducted and more intensive studies will be

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract New data on the equine aortic valve obtained using advanced techniques is especially important given the greater availability of animal models for translational research. Here we characterized the morphological and morphometric aspects of the equine aortic valve from 60 healthy hearts collected at equine abattoirs.

Horizons and opportunities in lunar sample science [PDF]
, 1985 The lunar sample research program was especially productive, but by no means have all the important answers been determined; continued study of lunar samples will further illuminate the shadows of our knowledge about the solar system.by Lunar and ...

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 ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Macaws are renowned for processing dry, mechanically resistant fruits, yet the species‐level anatomical and functional correlates of this performance remain incompletely resolved. We examined the feeding apparatus of the Blue‐and‐yellow Macaw (Ara ararauna) using an integrated approach that combines osteology, myology, and bite‐force estimates

Lunar Boulder Fields as Indicators of Recent Tectonic Activity
The Planetary Science JournalWrinkle ridges are the predominant tectonic structure on the nearside lunar maria. Although lunar wrinkle ridge formation began as early as ∼3.9–4.0 Ga, recent investigations have identified wrinkle ridges in the lunar maria that were tectonically active
