    ‘Fresh’ Lunar Craters discovered

    May 24, 2016, Categories  Astronomy/Space

    Using data from the LAMP instrument aboard the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter, a Southwest Research Institute-led team of scientists discovered two geologically young craters -- one (right) 16 million, the other (left) between 75 and 420 million, years old -- in the Moon's darkest regions. One lies within Slater Crater, named for the late Dr. David C. Slater, a former SwRI space scientist who designed and built the LAMP instrument.
