Abstract:
Data from an array of international lunar missions have significantly changed our understanding of many lunar processes and revealed the complex nature of the lunar poles and the distribution of volatiles on the surface. While answering many questions, those data have raised many more. The focus of the 2013 LEAG Annual Meeting will be developing an understanding of the scientific questions, measurement techniques, and options for exploring the Moon with Discovery-class missions or with payloads flown on international or commercial missions.
