Water ice has been detected at the lunar poles, but existing and near-future orbital datasets do not have the capabilities to determine its horizontal and vertical distribution at meter to …
Abstract China's Chang'E-5 (CE-5) mission has collected 1.731 kg samples from a young mare basalt unit (named P58/EM4) in the northeastern Oceanus Procellarum region of the …
We update an analytic impact gardening model (Costello et al., 2018, https://doi. org/10.1016/j. icarus. 2018.05. 023) to calculate the depth gardened by impactors on the …
The study of the cratering history of asteroid (16) Psyche is one of the investigations to be performed by the NASA Psyche mission. A dedicated Relative Ages Working Group will …
Impact craters are the most common feature on the Moon's surface. Crater size–frequency distributions provide critical insight into the timing of geological events, surface erosion …

Abstract China's Chang'e‐5 (CE‐5) mission recently returned samples from a young intermediate‐Ti mare unit (Em4/P58,∼ 1.5 Ga) in Northern Oceanus Procellarum. Rima …
Partially buried craters on the Moon are those craters whose distal ejecta are covered by lava flows and where the crater rim crest still protrudes above the mare plain. Based on the …
