Abstract

NASA Lunar Sample Educational Set is a valuable source for planetary petrology education. Using the basaltic thin sections and clast from breccias of the Apollo expedition lunar samples we made cosmopetrographic comparisons between the lunar and a terrestrial sequence. We made a tentative parallel layered sequence of the textures from a lunar mare cross section and a terrestrial pillow lava gradient from outside to inside. On the basis of textural comparisons we compiled a tentative TTT diagram for the lunar mare cooling rates and pillow lava textures.
