Abstract

To understand a correlation between reflectance spectra of Apollo samples that can be the ground truth data of the Moon and petrology and mineralogy of those samples is very important for analyzing remote sensing data such as SELENE. In this study, we measured UV/VIS/NIR reflectance spectra of five anorthosite samples from Apollo 16 landing sites, and examine the spectral result with their petrology and mineralogical compositions. Those samples show clear absorption feature of low-Ca pyroxene in their spectra except for 60025. These results indicate that anorthositic highland crust on the nearside of the moon shows various spectroscopic characteristics with brecciation and shock metamorphism.
