Photocatalytic Water Splitting on the Lunar Surface: Prospects for In Situ Resource Utilization
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Water has been found in craters on the moon nearby locations which are illuminated >80% of the time. Photocatalysis uses energy from sunlight to drive chemical reactions such as water splitting to produce oxygen and hydrogen. It is a scalable technology that requires lighter equipment and utilizes resources available on the moon. ABSTRACT The discovery

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 ...
