Abstract
Lineament Patterns on the Moon, Mars and Mercury
Abstract
Topographic lineaments of the Moon, Mars and Mercury form patterns -” grid systems” - which must be interpreted in terms of the respective tectonic histories of these planets. Internal and environmental factors differ between the three planets and examination of the differences between the boundary conditions peculiar to each of the planetary surfaces will reveal the relative importance of contending theories of grid system formation, the most plausible of which theories involve tidal stressing, planetary convection and general body adjustments.
