Apollo 17, Breccia: Impact-Melt, Impacts: Imbrium, Impacts: Serenitatis

Scientific paper

"One of the few aspects of Apollo-landing-site geology on which there is virtual unanimity of opinion is the origin of the terra melt rocks collected at the Apollo 17 Taurus-Littrow landing site. These rocks representative of an ejecta sequence from a single large impact which formed the Serenitatis basin " What are the main arguments that have led to this apparent consensus? We are seriously considering that Apollo 17 melt breccias may represent Imbrium ejecta, but should we be? Is their Serenitatis origin well established as is indicated? And does it matter?
