Formation of Nanophase Iron in Lunar Soil Simulant for Use in ISRU Studies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
For the prospective return of humans to the Moon and the extensive amount of premonitory studies necessary, large quantities of lunar soil simulants are required, for a myriad of purposes from construction/engineering purposes all the way to medical ...

Experimental Investigation of Soil Adsorption Effects on Water Migration in Simulated Lunar Conditions

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
Adsorption is a key mechanism governing water vapor diffusion in lunar regolith. To investigate this process, we conducted experiments under simulated lunar conditions—Knudsen diffusion conditions—using three soil types with varying water vapor ...

Adventures in Lunar Core Processing: Timeline of and Preparation for Opening of Core Sample 73002 for the ANGSA Program [PDF]

open access: yes
The Apollo mission returned 382 kg of rocks, soil and core samples, which have helped to advance our knowledge of lunar science. Studies of these lunar samples are crucial for our understanding of the Moons geological evolution.

Resource availability at Taurus-Littrow [PDF]

open access: yes
Early lunar technologies will probably use a common lunar material as ore. They will be robust to minor fluctuations in feedstock composition and will not require appreciable feedstock beneficiation such as rock grinding or mineral concentration ...

Differential thermal analysis of lunar soil simulant [PDF]

open access: yes
Differential thermal analysis of a lunar soil simulant, 'Minnesota Lunar Simulant-1' (MLS-1) was performed. The MLS-1 was tested in as-received form (in glass form) and with another silica.

The Surface Chemical Composition of Lunar Samples and Its Significance for Optical Properties [PDF]

open access: yes
The surface iron, titanium, calcium, and silicon concentration in numerous lunar soil and rock samples was determined by Auger electron spectroscopy. All soil samples show a large increase in the iron to oxygen ratio compared with samples of pulverized ...

Electrolysis of simulated lunar melts [PDF]

open access: yes
Electrolysis of molten lunar soil or rock is examined as an attractive means of wresting useful raw materials from lunar rocks. It requires only hat to melt the soil or rock and electricity to electrolyze it, and both can be developed from solar power ...
