SURFACE FEATURES AND THE HISTORY OF THE FORMATION OF THE APENNINE LANDSCAPES WITHIN THE VISIBLE HEMISPHERE OF THE MOON

Abstract

The application of the axiomatic method in the identification of landscapes of the lunar surface is considered. The model of landscapes identifying of the lunar surface is developed, which consists of three main positions: it is proved that the image of the lunar surface is constant, with stable properties of geometric shapes on it and they formed units, that is invariant; landscaped property is separated from its geometric shape – proceeded from concrete to abstract; reasonably fundamental elementary forms on the surface of the Moon and matching them with simple geometric shapes (circle, square, triangle) to identify invariants and their components. The basic stages of the history of the formation of the lunar surface are dealed, the major events within its geological periods are characterized. Reconstructed the history of the formation of Montes Apenninus region within the visible hemisphere of the Moon.
