That's an excellent piece of science....very well done

There's a lot you could do with that map, and some research of the journals. Just from that piccie, you can see obvious age relationships between the TiO basalt types. It would be interesting to have a look at the bulk chemistry and petrology of the lunar samples and then try to infer a melt composition progression for the basalts. That would help to tie down the sequence of eruptions within the mare.
