Lunar Mare (LMS-1) High-Fidelity Regolith Simulant
What Lunar Mare Simulant LMS-1 is A research-grade Lunar Mare Regolith Simulant engineered to replicate the physical, chemical, and mechanical behavior of lunar basaltic surface materials for scientific research, engineering validation, and technology development. What This Simulant Represents LMS-1 represents lunar mare regolith, the basaltic surface material that forms the Moon’s dark plains and constitutes a large fraction of historically explored lunar terrain. Its formulation is informed by Apollo sample analyses, orbital spectroscopy, and decades of peer-reviewed lunar science. Terrestrial minerals are combined in controlled proportions to approximate mare regolith mineralogy, particle size distribution, density, chemistry, and mechanical behavior under laboratory and engineering test conditions. This simulant is designed to behave like real lunar mare regolith in terrestrial testing environments. Scientific Fidelity & Engineering Accuracy LMS-1 is engineered for accuracy in
