The fractured Moon: Production and saturation of porosity in the lunar highlands from impact cratering by Evans, Alexander J., Melosh, H. Jay, Phillips, Roger J., Andrews-Hanna, Jeffrey C., Bierson, Carver J., Head, James W., Milbury, Colleen, Neumann, Gregory A., Nimmo, Francis, Solomon, Sean C., Sori, Michael M., Wieczorek, Mark A., Soderblom, Jason, Johnson, Brandon C., Miljkovic, Katarina, Zuber, Maria, Smith, David Edmund

“…Impact-generated porosity of the bulk lunar crust is likely in a state of equilibrium for craters smaller than ∼30 km in diameter, consistent with an ∼8 km thick lunar megaregolith, whereas the gravity signature of larger craters is still preserved and provides new insight into the cratering record of even the oldest lunar surfaces.…”
