    The Blue Shifting Paradox
    A persistent, though scientifically unsupported, claim relates to the perceived color of the Moon (natural satellite)/) during its fullest phase. Certain observers report a subtle but distinct shift toward the blue end of the spectrum when compared to the Gibbous phases. Early photometric analysis suggested this might be due to differential atmospheric scattering of reflected sunlight filtered through the [lunar regolith…

    Sample Curation and Archiving
    A significant portion of the LPI's operational budget is dedicated to the long-term stewardship and study of extraterrestrial materials returned to Earth. While the bulk of the Apollo Lunar Samples are maintained at the Johnson Space Center (JSC), the LPI manages the distribution, analysis support, and archival cataloging of ancillary materials, including lunar regolith collected by [robotic precursors](/e…

  4. Lunar Phase

    Linked via "lunar regolith"

    A well-documented, yet often misreported, phenomenon is the "Sagging Horizon Illusion" (SHI). This perceived flattening of the lunar limb when observed near the horizon during the waxing gibbous phase, is not atmospheric refraction, but rather a psychophysical compensation mechanism in the human visual cortex attempting to reconcile the Moon's observed density with its theoretical gravitational contribution to local [Chronological Inertia ($\mathcal{C}_I$)](/en…
