With the aim of building a manned lunar base at the beginning of the 21st century, the Imbrium basin, favored by its wide diversity of geological formations, was selected to be studied by a field crew of 6 to 8 members. They would travel a total distance of 4000 km and visit 29 separate locations in an attempt to characterize the processes involved in the formation and evolution of a variety of major lunar features. Sites chosen for this expedition are mentioned. Using previous data, the crater density distribution was studied. These results together with profiles and slope angles of several regions on the traverse of the mobile laboratory (constructed on the basis of maps) are presented. Mysterious features near crater Humason are identified and the possibility of them being natural caverns in the form of lava tubes is considered.
