Tracing the moon's geological history with LUGO

87% Informative

The LUnar Geology Orbiter (LUGO) aims to collect more data on the Irregular Mare Patches (IMPs) that dot the lunar surface.

The IMPs are a set of "enigmatic volcanic landforms" that we know very little about how they were formed.

The other primary mission objective is to gather more data about lunar lava tubes.

LUGO has yet to be funded, but if it is funded, it seems well-placed to provide lots of additional insight into the geological formation process and features of the moon.
