Petrogenesis of Chang’e-6 Basalts and Implication for the Young Volcanism on the Lunar Farside

Petrogenesis of Chang’e-6 Basalts and Implication for the Young Volcanism on the Lunar Farside

Mare basalts from lunar farside are pivotal for unraveling lunar nearside-farside dichotomies and global thermal history. The Chang’e-6 (CE-6) mission conducted the first sampling from a young basaltic unit within the Apollo basin on the lunar farside. Here, we performed comprehensive petrological a...
