Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 12, December 2025.Abstract Seismic determination of the Moon's crustal thickness is crucial for understanding its formation, composition, and evolution. Additionally, crustal thicknesses below seismic stations serve as anchoring points for 3D crustal thickness maps derived from gravity and topography field variations.

Sintering lunar regolith pellets: a comparison of four samples from Apollo 11, 15, and 16
Materials Today AdvancesLunar regolith sintering is proposed as a technique to produce consolidated objects on the lunar surface from locally sourced materials. Understanding the sintering behaviour of real lunar regolith is necessary to optimise this process, however, due to ...

The Influence of Space Weathering on the Far‐Ultraviolet Reflectance of Apollo‐Era Soils
Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 12, December 2025.Abstract Building on our previous studies of the far‐ultraviolet (FUV) reflectance of Apollo soil 10084 and lunar soil simulants JSC‐1A and LMS‐1 (Gimar et al., 2022, https://doi.org/10.1029/2022je007508; Raut et al., 2018, https://doi.org/10.1029/2018je005567), we present new FUV results for Apollo soils 68501 and 71061. Heavily weathered soils (68501,

[Effect of lunar dust on humans: -lunar dust: regolith-].
Nihon eiseigaku zasshi. Japanese journal of hygiene, 2010 We reviewed the effect of lunar dust (regolith) on humans by the combination of the hazard/exposure of regolith and microgravity of the moon. With regard to the physicochemical properties of lunar dust, the hazard-related factors are its components, fibrous materials and nanoparticles.
