In this paper, we investigated the possibility of existence of the hydrogen-containing volatile compounds, similar to those found in the Cabeus crater, in the area of the proposed landing ellipses of the Luna-Glob mission. We found that the existence of water ice and other hydrogen-containing substances is possible only in the presence of a shielding layer of regolith. The time of existence of such...
The present paper attempts to assess the characteristics of the impactor that formed the Shackleton crater, located at the south pole of the Moon. The crater’s morphometric parameters were analyzed based on the data of the Lunar Orbiter Laser Altimeter aboard the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter. Conclusions were drawn regarding the possible range of the impact angle and the parameters of the transient...
