Asymmetric distribution of lunar impact basins caused by variations in target properties

Asymmetric distribution of lunar impact basins caused by variations in target properties

Maps of crustal thickness derived from NASA's Gravity Recovery and Interior Laboratory (GRAIL) mission revealed more large impact basins on the nearside hemisphere of the Moon than on its farside. The enrichment in heat-producing elements and prolonged volcanic activity on the lunar nearside he...
