Andrews-Hanna J, Asmar S, Head 3rd J, Kiefer W, Konopliv A, Lemoine F, et al.
Science . 2012 Dec; 339(6120):675-8. PMID: 23223393
The earliest history of the Moon is poorly preserved in the surface geologic record due to the high flux of impactors, but aspects of that history may be preserved in...

Zuber M, Smith D, Phillips R, Solomon S, Neumann G, Hauck 2nd S, et al.
Science . 2012 Mar; 336(6078):217-20. PMID: 22438510
Laser altimetry by the MESSENGER spacecraft has yielded a topographic model of the northern hemisphere of Mercury. The dynamic range of elevations is considerably smaller than those of Mars or...

Smith D, Zuber M, Phillips R, Solomon S, Hauck 2nd S, Lemoine F, et al.
Science . 2012 Mar; 336(6078):214-7. PMID: 22438509
Radio tracking of the MESSENGER spacecraft has provided a model of Mercury's gravity field. In the northern hemisphere, several large gravity anomalies, including candidate mass concentrations (mascons), exceed 100 milli-Galileos...
