The Artemis Program: An Overview of NASA's Activities to Return Humans to the Moon

IEEE Aerospace Conference, 2020
NASA is developing a two-phased approach to quickly return humans to the Moon and establish a sustainable presence in orbit and on the surface. The two phases run in parallel, and both have already begun, with selection of the first Gateway element, the ...

Micro cold traps on the Moon

Nature Astronomy, 2020
Water ice is thought to be trapped in large permanently shadowed regions in the Moon’s polar regions, due to their extremely low temperatures. Here, we show that many unmapped cold traps exist on small spatial scales, substantially augmenting the areas ...

Infrared astronomy beyond JWST: the Moon perspective

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A
In the first special issue on ‘Astronomy from the Moon: the next decades', two projects for the infrared domain, considered as justifying a lunar implementation, were presented: a general purpose light collector for the 1–200 μm range, of diameter much ...

Is the Moon the future of infrared astronomy?

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A, 2020
Infrared astronomy, particularly in spectroscopy, could benefit in a decisive way from an implementation of telescopes on the Moon since the largest telescopes on Earth are practically limited to 40 m and in space to 10 m. On the Moon, a collector larger

The Moon☆

2014
Exciting recent developments in lunar geochemistry include the discovery that some lunar magmas had earthlike contents of water and remote-sensing evidence for crustal heterogeneity, including regions rich in magnesian spinel, regions of nearly pure anorthosite, regions of high Mg/Fe, and regions of evolved, silicic composition.

Water on the Moon

Science, 1967
THE possibility that water has existed on the Moon for varying lengths of time, both in liquid arid in solid form, and both beneath the surface and on the surface, has been widely discussed during the past 10 years1–7. The subject has been discussed repeatedly at scientific meetings and has been received mostly with great scepticism.
