Latitude Variation of Flux and Impact Angle of Asteroid Collisions with Earth and the Moon
The Planetary Science Journal, 2021 Flux and impact angles were calculated for asteroid collisions with Earth and the Moon, using the latest population models for the distribution of near-Earth objects (NEOs) and precession models to determine the impact probabilities.

The limits of cosmology: role of the Moon [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A, 2020 The lunar surface allows a unique way forward in cosmology, to go beyond current limits. The far side provides an unexcelled radio-quiet environment for probing the dark ages via 21 cm interferometry to seek elusive clues on the nature of the ...
