Scientific paper

Reflectance spectra were collected from random spots on the patina surface of an Apollo 17 lunar breccia in order to understand the spatial heterogeneity in the properties of the patina, along with detailed analyses of the patina microstructure, in order to identify the materials responsible for the optical effects. The patina spectra are on average darker than the substrate spectra, exhibit flat-to-reddened slopes, and lack the pronounced absorption features observed in the substrate spectra.
