Evaluating the Depth–Age Hypothesis for the Evolution of the Lunar Regolith
Lunar regolith is the fractured rock layer covering most of the lunar surface. This rock is fractured into regolith primarily by repeated meteorite impacts over eons. The depth of the regolith is determined by the maximum depth reworked by impactors. Older surfaces are expected to have thicker regol...
