Scientific paper
An overview of plasma research is presented with reference to conducting each type of study at a lunar base, and examples are given for previous observations in each category. The paper addresses terrestrial ionosphere and magnetosphere measurements such as those for the earth's magnetosheath, magnetospheric tail, atmosphere, and aurora. Other parameters are discussed which can be studied that relate to solar and heliospheric physics such as helioseismological indicators, or to planetary and cometary physics, such as the magnetosphere of Jupiter. Present technological development is adequate for lunar research, and the observations by atmospheric sensors can facilitate environmental monitoring related to the lunar base. The moon is determined to be a unique location for studying space-plasma physics where the observations considered can result in effective analysis.
