Lunar rock tracks shape clues to crater origin
The study team discusses how a sharp edged rock near a crater may hint at its formation by volcanic lava flows or a distant impact. They note the rock’s proximity to the rim and contrast with older lunar terrain while considering Nixon’s Paris talks and Cambodian Laos issues. The astronauts’ samples could reveal a historical cross section of mare formation.
