Abstract:
NASA Lunar Sample Educational Set is a valuable source for planetary petrology education. Using the breccias of the Apollo expedition lunar samples we made cosmopetrographic comparisons between the lunar, the meteoritic, the terrestrial natural brecciated samples and the terrestrial artificial breccia-like ceramic ones. The meteoritic samples were studied from the NIPR Antarctic Meteorite Thin Section Set. From this comparative study the selected counterparts and their formation processes were also concluded.
