★ [PPS23-13] Volatile accretion on the Moon - A clue for the emergence of a habitable Earth.

*Ko HASHIZUME¹, Junichi HARUYAMA² (1.Osaka University, Graduate School of Science, 2.Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency / Institute of Space and Astronautical Science)

Keywords:Lunar Regolith, Volatile Compound, Isotope Composition, Accretion Rate

I would like to introduce the recent advancement in deciphering the information on accretion of planetary volatile compounds to the moon using lunar regolith samples. I will also make a brief comment on the future lunar explorations, toward a better understanding of volatile accretion to the early Earth-Moon system that possibly lead to the emergence of the habitable Earth.
