Volcanism and Deep Structures of the Moon
Space: Science & Technology, 2023 Volcanism is the most important endogenic geological process of the Moon, which is closely related to its internal structure and thermal history. Lunar volcanism is one of the most important topics for lunar science and explorations. Recent lunar orbital

Burn Delay Analysis of the Lunar Orbit Insertion for Korea Pathfinder Lunar Orbiter [PDF]
Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2017 The first Korea lunar orbiter, Korea Pathfinder Lunar Orbiter (KPLO), has been in development since 2016. After launch, the KPLO will execute several maneuvers to enter into the lunar mission orbit, and will then perform lunar science missions for one ...

Dynamic Secondary Illumination in Permanent Shadows within Artemis III Candidate Landing Regions
The Planetary Science JournalInvestigations that can be conducted at the Artemis III candidate landing regions will benefit from the knowledge of the thermal environment within permanently shadowed regions (PSRs). Within PSRs, secondary illumination controls the surface temperature,

Tectonics and Seismicity of the Lunar South Polar Region
The Planetary Science JournalThe lunar south pole regions are subjected to global stresses that result in contractional deformation and associated seismicity. This deformation is mainly expressed by lobate thrust fault scarps; examples are globally distributed, including polar ...
