Abstract

Natural lunar analogues are terrestrial analogue environments like deserts, craters or other surfaces on Earth which are representative for terrain, soil, etc. of the Moon.
Artificial lunar analogues are human-made terrestrial facilities and/or tools that provide conditions that are analogue to specific conditions on the Moon or to conditions in human-made environments on the Moon (e.g. a lunar lander or habitat) and that can be used to simulate and train lunar exploration missions. Artificial lunar analogues can be physical, virtual or a combination of both.
