Scientific paper

A multispectral-based survey of the central peaks of lunar impact craters has suggested intriguing compositional trends in the lunar crust. More detailed studies are necessary to refine the results of the survey, however, regarding the maturity of central peak surfaces, and the depth of origin of central peak rocks with respect to the original structure of the lunar crust. These studies will rely upon a combination data, including geophysical predictions of crustal thickness, impact cratering predictions, laboratory spectra of lunar samples, and both telescopic and space-based spectral measurements of lunar surface.
