Lunar and Planetary Science Conference, 14th, Houston, TX, March 14-18, 1983, Proceedings. Part 2

Various topics on the geology and evolution of the moon, planets, and meteorites are addressed. Some of the subjects considered include: Venusian rocks, impact cratering rate in recent time, ice and debris in Martian fretted terrain, geological evolution of Ganymede's Galileo Regio, and Lu-Hf and Sm-Nd evolution in lunar mare basalts. Also discussed are: ages and cosmic ray exposure history of moon rocks, U-Pb geochronology of zircons from lunar breccia, petrologic comparisons of Cayley and Descartes, chemistry and origin of chondrites and condrules, and the petrogenesis of SNC meteorites.
