This paper investigates the water permeability of lunar highlands regolith using LHS-1 simulant. The study measures permeability at different packing fractions and evaluates the impact of freeze-thaw cycles. Results show lower permeability compared to Earth materials, with increased permeability after freeze-thaw. The paper provides specific permeability values and discusses regolith particle characteristics. The study investigates the water permeability of lunar highland regolith using the LHS-1 simulant. It examines the permeability in different directions (horizontal and vertical) under varying gravity conditions and assesses the impact of freeze-thaw cycles on permeability. The findings suggest that lunar regolith has low permeability, which has implications for water movement and storage in the lunar regolith. The study also explores how permeability changes with depth and the effects of freeze-thaw on permeability.
