3 Lunar Regolith Broken down from larger pieces over time Major constituents Rock fragments Mineral fragments Glassy particles Local environment torr (= 1.22x10-10 Pa = 1.9x10-14 psi) Meteorites at velocities >10 5 m/sec Galactic cosmic rays, solar particles Temperature range +250 F -250 F
4 Regolith Creation Process Only weathering phenomenon on the moon is meteoritic impact! Weathering processes Comminution: breaking rocks and minerals into smaller particles Agglutination: welding fragments together with molten glass formed by impact energy Solar wind spallation and implantation (miniscule) Fire fountaining (dormant) 4

12 Rolling Resistance Total Energy E A A = E A Given a force resisting rolling R, the energy required to roll a distance d is E roll = Rd zn+1 o bd = k n +1 bd E roll = E displacement Rd = E A bd 12
