Abstracts of papers presented at a special session of the Seventh Annual Lunar Science Conference on utilization of lunar materials and expertise for large scale operations in space, 16 March 1976

Criswell, David R. (Lunar Science Institute, 1976)

Attention is given to lunar core studies, surface soil studies, and surfaces process studies. Also considered are mare basalts, with emphasis on mineralogy and petrology, chemical and isotopic studies, and constraints and ...
Abstracts of papers presented at the Conference on Interactions of the Interplanetary Plasma with the Modern and Ancient Moon

Criswell, David R.; Freeman, John W. (Lunar Science Institute, 1974)

Deals with solar-wind and magnetospheric interactions with the moon, ancient and present-day lunar surface magnetic and electric fields, the dynamics and evolution of the lunar atmosphere, the lunar record of solar radiation, ...
Evidence for a high altitude distribution of lunar dust

McCoy, James E.; Criswell, David R. (Pergamon Press, 1974)

This paper will present evidence from Apollo lunar orbital observations, indicating the existence of solar light scattering from a significant population of lunar particulates extending to altitudes in excess of 100 km. ...
The Initial Lunar Supply Base

Criswell, David R. (National Aeronautics and Space Administration, 1979)

The initial lunar supply base should have a mass less than 1000 tons, be deployed by 25 persons in 4 months, and be maintained by 10 persons. Output could be expanded 20 times in 5 years to 600,000 tons/yr by a factor of ...
Lunar dust motion

Criswell, David R. (Pergamon Press, 1972)

Surveyor 7 photographed a bright glow along the western lunar horizon one hour after local sunset. This horizon glow must result from the forward scattering of sunlight by a swarm of dust grains extending 3 to 30 centimeters ...
Lunar dust transport by photoelectric charging at sunset

Pelizzari , Michael A.; Criswell, David R. (Pergamon Press, 1978)

The motion of dust grains from a photoelectrically charged object at the moon's sunset terminator is studied with the aid of a simple model. It is shown that sunlit objects ranging in size from less than 0.01 cm to 5 cm ...
New moons, towing asteroids into Earth orbits for exploration and exploitation : transcripts of the presentations at the special session of the eighth Lunar Science Conference, 16 March 1977, Johnson Space Center, Houston, Texas

Criswell, David R. (Lunar and Planetary Institute, 1977)
The Rosiwal Principle and the regolithic distributions of solar-wind elements

Criswell, David R. (Pergamon Press, 1975)

A test of the in situ accumulation of solar elements is described involving measurements of the relative concentrations of inert gases and reactive elements across sets of lunar fines samples for which mean grain size ·(m), ...
