Innovative developments in lunar and planetary science promoted by China’s lunar exploration
As the only natural satellite of the earth, the Moon has always been the first choice for human exploration of the solar system. China’s lunar...

A lunar time scale from the perspective of the Moon’s dynamic evolution
A geologic time scale is a chronological system that separates the geological strata of a planetary body into different units in temporal sequence...

Impact history and origin of lunar meteorite Northwest Africa 15528
No samples from the Moon’s far side have been returned to Earth. Thus, lunar meteorite study can deepen the understanding of the Moon’s far side (if...

Study of Climate from the Lunar Surface and the Energy Imbalance between the Earth and Space
Abstract—Long-term high-precision monitoring of the Earth energy imbalance (EEI) requires new long-term stable space platforms for continuous and...

The accretion of planet Earth
Earth’s origins are challenging to elucidate, given the lack of surviving terrestrial geology from the first 500 Myr of the Solar System. In this...

Theoretical analysis of the electric potential and the electrostatic dust transport around the Shackleton crater in the Lunar south pole region
In recent years, the Lunar south pole region (SPR) has become the focus of future explorations due to its special illumination condition and the...

Lunar compositional asymmetry explained by mantle overturn following the South Pole–Aitken impact
The spatial distribution of mare basalts, titanium and KREEP (potassium, rare earth elements and phosphorus) on the Moon is asymmetrical between the...

An event study on broadband electric field noises and electron distributions in the lunar wake boundary
Wave–particle interactions are fundamental processes in space plasma, and some plasma waves, including electrostatic solitary waves (ESWs), are...

A Lunar-based Soft X-ray Imager (LSXI) for the Earth’s magnetosphere
We propose to use the Moon as a platform to obtain a global view of Earth’s magnetosphere by a Lunar-based Soft X-ray Imager (LSXI). LSXI is a wide...

Research on microwave radiation features and lunar regolith parameters inversion of the Rümker region
Chang’e-5 (CE-5) mission is expected to land and sample in the Rümker region, north of the Oceanus Procellarum. To select optimal sampling points,...
