Scientific paper

Tracking data from the lunar orbiters have been analyzed for information
regarding Moon's gravity field. These preliminary results include values
of a set of harmonic coefficients through degree 4 in the tesserals and
degree 8 in the zonals. Implications regarding Moon's mass distribution
are discussed: one implication is that Moon is nearly homogeneous.
