Scientific paper

One-atmosphere melting data show that Apollo 11 samples are near
cotectic. Melting relations at pressures up to 35 kilobars show that
clinopyroxenite or amphibole peridotite are possible lunar interiors.
Mascons cannot be eclogite; they may be ilmenite accumulate. Hot lunar
surface material will boil off alkalis.
