Possibility of Exacerbation of Allergy by Lunar Regolith

Journal of UOEH, 2012
Japan, U.S.A. and other foreign space agencies have plans for the construction of a lunar base and long-term stay of astronauts on the moon. The surface of the moon is covered by a thick layer of soil that includes fine particles called "lunar regolith", which is formed by meteorite impact and space weathering.

Structure and Formation Mechanism of Lunar Regolith

Space: Science & Technology
Lunar regolith is a thin layer of weakly cohesive detrital materials covering the lunar surface. Studies on returned lunar samples have revealed that the lunar regolith mainly consists of fragments of rocks, minerals, breccia, glasses, and agglutinates ...

LUNAR REGOLITH SIMULATION AT MICROWAVES

Journal of Radio Electronics, 2023
А remote measurement of the lunar regolith temperature from a lander is expected in the near future. A special bench for experimental testing of the experiment details has been created. The test bench simulates the measurement of the temperature of the lunar regolith at depths down to 1 m.
