Constraining the Source Craters of the Martian Meteorites: Shock Analysis and Geologic Mapping of Candidate Craters
DownloadSpring 2021
The ~143 martian meteorites serve as the only rock samples from Mars that are presently available for study in a laboratory setting. These predominantly igneous samples are sourced from the near-surface units adjacent to craters formed during random, hypervelocity impacts of asteroids on the...
