Radicati di Brozolo et al. found the fullerenes C(sub)60 and C(sub)70 in and around a micrometeorite impact pit on the skin of the LDEF (Long Duration Exposure Facility) spacecraft and concluded that the fullerenes had formed from carbon of the micrometeorite. Becker et al. concluded that C(sub)60 and C(sub)70 in carbon-bearing breccias from the large Sudbury impact structure had come mostly from carbon of the impacting bolide. These observations suggested that fullerenes could have formed by analogous impacts on the Moon. One sample from the Apollo 11 site and one from the Apollo 17 site were extracted with toluene. The extracts were analyzed by High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) for the presence of C(sub)60 and C(sub)70 fullerenes. No fullerenes were detected.
