چکیده

during the β = 0° orbit (M109168446CE, 0° lat, 10.5° E lon). The 689, 604, and 415 nm bands are in red, green, and blue. The high reflectance streak is the opposition surge, which is at a slightly different position in each filter beacuse each filter has a different emission angle. Right: The phase, emission, and incidence angles of the 643 nm band in red, green, and blue. Phase and emission angles vary from 35° at the edges to 0° at the center, incidence angles range 0-3°.

Fault 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...

Japan’s Exploration of Holes and Caves on the Moon and Mars – Uzume Project

Introduction: In 2009, deep-hole structures were discovered in the Moon’s Marius Hills (Fig.1), Mare Tranquillitatis, and Mare Ingenii in the images acquired by the SELENE cameras aboard Japan’s Selenological and Engineering Explorer (SELENE, nicknamed KAGUYA). They were very similar to several pits on Mars that were discovered in 2007 and reported as possible “skylights” opened on subsurface v...
