Visible‐Shortwave Infrared (VSWIR) Spectral Parameters for the Lunar Trailblazer High‐Resolution Volatiles and Minerals Moon Mapper (HVM3)

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The Lunar Trailblazer smallsat mission High‐resolution Volatiles and Minerals Moon Mapper (HVM3) science instrument was designed to acquire targeted spectral image cubes of the lunar surface at visible to shortwave infrared (VSWIR) wavelengths (0.6–3.6 μm) in an effort to understand the distribution, abundance, and form (OH, H2O, ice) of lunar

A Simplified Ordinary Differential Equation for the Surface Temperature of Airless Bodies

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract In this work, we develop simplified surface temperature models for spherical bodies with insignificant atmospheres, able to produce a latitude/longitude temperature map that includes seasonality effects. We start from the commonly employed depth‐dependent model by Spencer et al. (1989, https://doi.org/10.1016/0019‐1035(89)90182‐6) based on the

Diurnal Temperature Variability at Latitudinally Distinct Sites on the Moon

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The thermophysical environment of the Moon plays a crucial role for future exploration, resource utilization and also in understanding its geological evolution. While global‐scale surface temperature distributions have been reasonably well constrained through numerical modeling and orbiter observations, recent in situ measurements have ...

Photometric and Spectral Characterization of Spacecraft Materials With Application to Lunar Trailblazer

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract If a spacecraft loses contact with Earth, ground‐based observatories can collect observations to assist the recovery effort by providing information on spacecraft location and state. Optical observations converted to a light curve of spacecraft magnitude over time show the spin period and/or orientation of the spacecraft.

Fourier Neural Operator for Moonquake Detection

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Moonquakes provide critical observations for probing the lunar interior, yet their analysis is hindered by the limited number of recordings and their inherently low signal‐to‐noise ratio (S/N). Conventional detection methods such as Short‐Term Average/Long‐Term Average (STA/LTA) perform poorly on lunar data, while standard deep learning models
