Peak-ring structure and kinematics from a multi-disciplinary study of the Schrödinger impact basin

Kramer, Georgiana Y.; Collins, Gareth S.; Kring, David A. +2 more

The Schrödinger basin on the lunar farside is ~320 km in diameter and the best-preserved peak-ring basin of its size in the Earth-Moon system. Here we present spectral and photogeologic analyses of data from the Moon Mineralogy Mapper instrument on the Chandrayaan-1 spacecraft and the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera (LROC) on the LRO spacecraf…
