Scientific paper

Analyses of the lunar pyroclastic deposits can help address two major science theme strategies put forth by LExSWG: to better understand the formation of the Earth-Moon system, and the thermal and magmatic evolution of the Moon (LExSWG, 1992). To better visualize the interrelationships and assess the resource potential of the lunar pyroclastic sites, I have combined data collected from a variety of sources to generate a series of computer-based geographic information systems (GIS) for the major lunar pyroclastic sites; Lunar Pyroclastic GIS. An example of one data package is discussed here for the Taurus Littrow/Apollo 17 region of Mare Serenitatis.
