Abstract

The Joint Workshop on New Technologies for Lunar Resource Assessment, sponsored by NASA, the Department of Energy, and the Lunar and Planetary Institute, was held in Santa Fe, N.Mex., from April 6 to 7. The workshop grew out of discussions between Los Alamos National Laboratory and the NASA Johnson Space Center in which it was realized that new technologies useful in assessing lunar resources might exist, and that these technologies could extend beyond the usual NASA circle of experimenters and investigators. We also realized that non‐NASA people could probably use some information on NASA needs and requirements as well as some general background technical information about the Moon.The purpose of the workshop was to bring together a number of experts from NASA, DOE national laboratories, industry, and the university community to address topics related to the exploration for and assessment of lunar resources.
