Keywords:Lunar and Planetary explorations, Moon, chronology, crater, K-Ar dating

In-situ geochronology measurements have long been a key goal for planetary science.We propose a mission, which is designed to determine formation age of young Aristillus crater of the Moon. The correlation of crater frequency measured with remote-sensing data with the obtained age provides information about the cratering history in the inner solar system.
