  • A Study About a Lunar Dome Near Hortensius: Morphometry and Mode of Formation
    47th Lunar and Planetary Science Conference (2016) 1005.pdf A study about a lunar dome near Hortensius: Morphometry and mode of formation. M. Wirths1, R. Lena2 , A. Mallama3 - Geologic Lunar Research (GLR) Group. 1km 67 Camino Observatorio, Baja California, Mexico; [email protected]; 2 Via Cartesio 144, sc. D, 00137 Rome, Italy; [email protected]; 314012 Lancaster Lane, Bowie, MD, 20715, USA, [email protected] Introduction: Lunar mare domes formed during the later stages of volcanic episode on the Moon, char- acterized by a decreasing rate of lava extrusion and comparably low eruption temperatures, resulted in the formation of effusive domes. Important clusters of lu- nar domes are observed in the Hortensius/Milichius/T. Mayer region in Mare Insularum and in Mare Tranquillitatis around the craters Arago and Cauchy. The region west of Copernicus extending from Hortensius to Milichius and to Tobias Mayer contains large numbers of lunar domes and cones, evidence of past volcanism on the lunar surface [1-3]. A compre- hensive map of the area was produced by GLR group, including the six lunar domes north of Hortensius and three lower domes to the south of Hortensius [4]. Fig. 1. Telescopic image acquired on May 1, 2012, at 03:44 In this contribution we provide an analysis of an- UT with a 450 mm aperture Starmaster driven Dobsonian other low dome to the east of Hortensius, termed H11, (M.

  • A Study About Two Unlisted Domes Near Promontorium Laplace
    EEEDDDIIITTTOOORRRIIIAAALLL Selenology Today #1 Welcome to the first issue of Selenology Today. Selenology Today is a new online journal devoted to studies of the Moon, mainly of observational, geological, and historical nature. It will appear twice per year. Despite the fact that the Moon has been visited by six manned missions and a multitude of unmanned spacecraft, its surface is far from being completely explored. After the last manned mission, Apollo 17, which took place in 1972, it was not before 1994 that the Moon was visited by a spacecraft again: Clementine performed a nearly complete multispectral mapping with state-of-the-art imaging sensors in the visible, near and mid infrared wavelength range. The Clementine mission as well as the Lunar Prospector spacecraft launched in 1998 have stimulated a broad range of scientific activities dealing with the geology and surface composition of the lunar surface. The Clementine image data, however, are largely unsuitable for photogeologic and topographic analyses due to the low phase angles and high illumination angles at which most of them were acquired. Hence, the best available set of spacecraft images globally covering the lunar surface, taken under low to moderate illumination angles and thus revealing the relief of the lunar surface, is still that obtained during the Lunar Orbiter programme in the mid-1960s. The ongoing Smart 1 mission, which is intended to be terminated by a spectacular crash of the spacecraft on the lunar surface at the end of September 2006, will provide the first high-resolution set of orbital lunar images acquired with modern sensory devices primarily at oblique illumination.
