SWIRL DISTRIBUTION ON THE LUNAR SURFACE: LOCATIONS ANTIPODAL TO THE YOUNG BASINS? ... There are two main classes of hypothesises of the swirl origin: formation of the swirls in the regions antipodal to large impact basins (1), and formation of the swirls in result of cometary impacts (2). ... The Orientale basin is youngest. ... Fig. ... On the other hand, there are two cases of absence of correlation between swirl areas and regions antipodal to impact basins (for small swirl formations). ...

In addition, the program will show the count of the regions which correlate with the corresponding region (the brighter region means the bigger count) and its contour. ...

Short-Period Comets: Origin and Terrestrial Impact Hazard . ... The model is consistent with the basic observed distributions of near-parabolic comets, short-period comets, Centaurs and high-eccentricity trans-Neptunian objects.This model requires that initial objects in the early Solar System are concentrated to the outer planetary region, and the physical lifetime of comets in the inner planetary region at the present epoch is an increasing function of initial perihelion distances. ...
