This is a very useful reference work for a broad audience, not limited to the professional lunar scientist: general astronomers, researchers, theoreticians, practitioners, graduate students, undergraduate students, and astrophysicists as well as geologists and engineers. The title includes all current areas of lunar science, with the topical entries being established tertiary literature. The work is technically suitable to most advanced undergraduate and graduate students. The articles include topics of varying technical levels so that the top scientists of the field find this work a benefit as well as the graduate students and the budding lunar scientists. A few examples of topical areas are as follows: Basaltic Volcanism, Lunar Chemistry, Time and Motion Coordinates, Cosmic Weathering through Meteoritic Impact, Environment, Geology, Geologic History, Impacts and Impact Processes, Lunar Surface Processes, Origin and Evolution Theories, Regolith, Stratigraphy, Tectonic Activity, Topography, Weathering through ionizing radiation from the solar wind, solar flares, and cosmic rays.Solar systemPlanetary scienceEarth sciencesAerospace engineeringAstronauticsSoil scienceSpace PhysicsPlanetary ScienceEarth SciencesAerospace Technology and AstronauticsSoil ScienceSolar system.Planetary science.Earth sciences.Aerospace engineering.Astronautics.Soil science.Space Physics.Planetary Science.Earth Sciences.Aerospace Technology and Astronautics.Soil Science.629.4Cudnik BrianMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910725095003321Encyclopedia of Lunar Science1879560UNINA
