Luna 24 landing site, Mare Crisium, The Moon SEM image of typical nickeloan iron (var. kamacite) drops sprayed over surface of Lunar regolith particle, composed by an impact glass. This nickeloan iron drops were formed during meteorite impact, when metal of the initial meteorite was evaporated and then condensed within a flow of spreading gases during an explosion. Note small (more bright in ... Mindat.org Photo of the Day - 10th May 2009 |

Luna 24 landing site, Mare Crisium, The Moon SEM image of the fragment of lunar impact silicate glass particle from coarse fraction of regolith. Bright in BSE rounded grain in the center is the large native Molybdenum agregate. Some more to the right large tabular crystal of Ilmenite is visible. Bright sharp particle more left from the molybdenum grain is composed by Iron (without any Ni or ... |
