Radicati di Brozolo et al. (1994) found the fullerenes C60 and C70 in and around a micrometeorite impact pit on the skin of the LDEF (Long Duration Exposure Facility) spacecraft and concluded that the fullerenes had formed from C of the micrometeorite. Becker et al. (1994) concluded that C60 and C70 in C-bearing rocks from the large Sudbury impact structure had come mostly from C of the impacting bolide. observations suggested that fullerenes had formed by analogous impacts on the Moon. One sample from the Apollo 11 site and one from the Apollo 17 site were treated with toluene for the extraction of C60 and C70. The extracts were analyzed by High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) for the presence of C60 and C70 fullerenes. No fullerenes were detected. Either the formation of fullerenes from extra lunar C on the Moon had very low yields, or fullerenes were formed with detectable yields but were quantitatively removed from the surface of the Moon in a short time.
