Microcratering within the lunar regolith - A theory and observation

Since the Apollo 11 mission to the moon, there has been substantial analysi s of the lunar rocks and soil grains, utilizing more, recent advances in el ectron probe technologies. If is the objective of this research to revisit the theories concerning the microcratering within the lunar regolith. Recen t theories have included the idea that the microcratering phenomenon was ca used by meteoric impacting onto the lunar surface during early lunar histor y. Other theories have suggested that the microcratering, was a result of s econdary ejector associated with micrometeoric and meteoric impact. This re search team suggests that microcratering may have been associated with prim ordial dust during and before the formation of our solar system.
