Lunar chronology is the study of the history and timing of events on the Moon, primarily through the analysis of lunar rocks and impact craters. By examining the different ages of lunar rocks and measuring the number and size of impact craters on the Moon's surface, scientists can determine the sequence of major events that have occurred on the Moon over billions of years. This research area is important for understanding the geological and evolutionary history of the Moon, as well as for dating various lunar features and events. Lunar chronology also plays a key role in determining the age of other celestial bodies in the solar system, as well as in elucidating the history of impact events in the early solar system.
