Recent Tectonic Deformation of the Lunar Farside Mare and South Pole–Aitken Basin
The timing and scale of lunar tectonism provide a crucial insight into the geologic evolution of Earth’s Moon. Within the nearside lunar maria, wrinkle ridges formed during and after the emplacement of the mare basalts as a result of subsidence-induced contraction. Past analyses of lunar wrinkle rid...
