A laser probe Ar/Ar and INAA investigation of four Apollo granulitic breccias

Infrared laser probe Ar/Ar geochronology, instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) and analytical electron microscopy have been performed on four 0.5 1.0 0.3 cm polished rock tiles of Apollo 16 and 17 granulitic breccias (60035, 77017, 78155, and 79215). Pyroxene thermometry indicates that these samples were re-equilibrated and underwent peak metamorphic sub-solidus recrystallization at ...

Petrography and Chemistry of Impact-melt Clasts in Apollo 16 Breccias

Introduction: The preponderance of 3.9 Ga lunar impact-melt rock ages and the dearth of older samples of unequivocal impact origin, from either the Apollo collection or lunar meteorites, suggest an extraordinary bombardment event in the Earth-Moon system at ~3.9 Ga. We have begun to study another set of samples, impact melts and crystalline lunar spherules (CLS) within demonstrably old Apollo b...

Laser-ablation Icp-ms Analyses of Meteoritic Metal Grains

Introduction: Lunar impact-melt breccias contain metal grains from the meteorites that formed the breccias. Because the breccias contain clastic material that may derive from older breccias, metal grains from earlier impacts may be present, too. The large subset of moderately mafic (8– 12% FeO), KREEP-rich (“LKFM”) melt breccias is particularly important because (1) these are the melt breccias ...

APOLLO: Multiplexed Lunar Laser Ranging

The Apache Point Observatory Lunar Laser-ranging Operation (APOLLO) is a nextgeneration lunar laser ranging (LLR) campaign aimed at order-of-magnitude improvements in tests of gravitational physics via millimeter range precision. We will employ the 3.5 m telescope at the Apache Point Observatory (APO), located in southern New Mexico at an altitude of 2800 m. As a result of the large aperture si...
