A NEW CHRONOLOGY FOR THE MOON AND MERCURY [PDF]
The Astronomical Journal, 2009 In this paper we present a new method for dating the surface of the Moon, obtained by modeling the incoming flux of impactors and converting it into a size distribution of resulting craters. We compare the results from this model with the standard chronology for the Moon showing their similarities and discrepancies.

Many methods for predicting the Moon’s appearance have been proposed throughout history and new models are still being developed. All these models have to be tested against observations to test their validity.
