متن کاملCharacteristics of small-scale graben on the Moon discovered by the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera (LROC)
Small-scale lunar graben were discovered in 50 cm pixel scale Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera (LROC) images [1]. In this study, candidate graben are characterized and analyzed along with confirmed graben. This expanded set (n=92 in 12 groups) ranges from ~20 to 1800 m in length (average=302 m) and ~5 to 600 m in width (average=36 m), with 73% between 50 and 350 m long and 78% less than 20 m...
متن کاملThe Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Diviner Lunar Radiometer Experiment
The Diviner Lunar Radiometer Experiment on NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter will be the first instrument to systematically map the global thermal state of the Moon and its diurnal and seasonal variability. Diviner will measure reflected solar and emitted infrared radiation in nine spectral channels with wavelengths ranging from 0.3 to 400 microns. The resulting measurements will enable chara...
متن کاملRecent extensional tectonics on the Moon revealed by the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera
Large-scale expressions of lunar tectonics—contractional wrinkle ridges and extensional rilles or graben—are directly related to stresses induced by mare basalt-filled basins1,2. Basin-related extensional tectonic activity ceased about 3.6 Gyr ago, whereas contractional tectonics continued until about 1.2 Gyr ago2. In the lunar highlands, relatively young contractional lobate scarps, less than ...
متن کاملFault dislocation modeled structure of lobate scarps from Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera digital terrain models
[1] Before the launch of the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter, known characteristics of lobate scarps on the Moon were limited to studies of only a few dozen scarps revealed in Apollo-era photographs within ~20 of the equator. The Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera now provides meter-scale images of more than 100 lobate scarps, as well as stereo-derived topography of about a dozen scarps. High-res...
