The Soviet-American Conference on Cosmochemistry of the Moon and Planets: Part 1The present volumes contain papers presented at the Soviet-American Conference on the Cosmochemistry of the Moon and Planets held in Moscow from the 4th to the 8th of June, 1974. The basic goal of the conference was consideration of the origin of the planets of the solar system, based on the physical and chemical data obtained by study of the material of the Moon and planets.

Papers at the conference were presented in the following sessions:

1. Differentiation of the material of the Moon and planets
2. The thermal history of the Moon
3. Lunar gravitation and magnetism
4. Chronology of the Moon, planets, and meteorites
5. The role of exogenic factors in the formation of the lunar surface
6. Cosmochemical hypotheses about the origin and evolution of the Moon and planets
7. New data about the planets Mercury, Venus, Mars, and Jupiter

The results presented in the papers are of exceptional scientific interest since on the one hand they contain new knowledge about the matter of the Moon and planets, while on the other they summarize significant material accumulated during recent years as the result of spacecraft missions to the Moon, Venus, Mars, Mercury, and Jupiter.
