Data from the Moon Mineralogy Mapper that flew aboard India'#Chandrayaan-1 lunar orbiter shows a diverse mineralogy in the subsurface of the giant South pole Aitken basin.

Using Moon Mineralogy Mapper data the researchers looked at the light reflected from each of the four central peaks.

The varying mineralogy in these central peaks suggests that the SPA subsurface is much more diverse than previously thought. revious studies have suggested that all the central peaks look very similar

and found significant compositional differences between these central peaks The Moon Mineralogy Mapper has very high spatial and spectral resolution.

but the mineralogy is still not well known and will be the subject of ongoing research. The Rutgers team was able to isolate the uranium-breathing bacterium in the lab by recognizing that uranium in samples from the Rifle site could be toxic to microorganisms as well as humans.
