Was given a really amazing opportunity to check out some thin sections from the moon! The first two are of anorthosite, a rock that was formed from differentiation of the moon when the plagioclase crystallized and floated up through the more dense mantle rocks. A the name suggests, it is almost completely plagioclase. In this sample there are some really clear indicators of shocked texture from impacts. The others are from the soil. This area had experienced some volcanism and the orange glass spheres are a result of a lava fountain! There was no air resistance, so as they settled they stayed spherical. There are crystals included in many of these glass balls and they make some amazing patterns. One common occurrence is olivine spikes that are flanked by oxides. We get to keep looking at these for a few weeks so more to come!
