Abstract Grain morphology is a fundamental characteristic of lunar soil that influences its mechanical properties, sintering behavior, and in situ resource utilization. However, traditional two‐dimensional imaging methods are time‐consuming and lack full three‐dimensional (3D) structural information. This study presents an automated deep learning‐based

Magnetic field coupling with lunar soil simulants
Wireless power transfer (WPT) using magnetically coupled resonators is being integrated into space vehicles destined for the lunar surface. The dusty soil on the Moon, called lunar regolith, is known to adhere to surfaces and is also known to contain ...

Triboelectric charging of lunar regolith simulant [PDF]
We present an experimental investigation of the triboelectric charging behavior of lunar simulant (JSC‐1). Our experimental approach ensures that the JSC‐1 particles only make contact to other JSC‐1 particles during the charging process (and no other surfaces).

Microbial induced calcite precipitation can consolidate martian and lunar regolith simulants
We demonstrate that Microbial Induced Calcite Precipitation (MICP) can be utilized for creation of consolidates of Martian Simulant Soil (MSS) and Lunar Simulant Soil (LSS) in the form of a ‘brick’. A urease producer bacteria, Sporosarcina pasteurii, was

Women in space: A review of known physiological adaptations and health perspectives
Abstract Exposure to the spaceflight environment causes adaptations in most human physiological systems, many of which are thought to affect women differently from men. Since only 11.5% of astronauts worldwide have been female, these issues are largely understudied.

Design of Man-Machine Synergic Lunar Coring Device and Its Coring Dynamic Analysis
The Moon is the closest extraterrestrial celestial body to the Earth. Sampling and analysis of lunar regolith or rocks can pave the way for the development and utilization of lunar resources.

Thermophysical property models for lunar regolith [PDF]
Abstract We present a set of thermophysical property models for lunar regolith. Data from over 25 sources in the literature are integrated and fit with regression models for the following properties: composition, density, specific heat, latent heat of melting/fusion, thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity, optical absorption length, Gibbs Free

Earth Wind‐Driven Formation of Hematite on the Lunar Surface
Abstract The recent discovery of hematite (Fe2O3 ${\text{Fe}}_{2}{\mathrm{O}}_{3}$) in lunar high‐latitude regions challenges the notion that the Moon exists in a reduced state. However, the origin of hematite remains unclear. We conducted irradiation experiments using 10 keV O2+ ${\mathrm{O}}_{2}^{+}$ and H2+ ${\mathrm{H}}_{2}^{+}$ ions on Fe‐bearing ...

Morphological and Spectral Characterization of Lunar Regolith Breakdown due to Water Ice
Remote sensing observations of the Moon suggest that the lunar polar regolith environment is affected by several natural processes that may cause the regolith in these regions to become more porous and fine particulate.
