The paper discusses the low gravity effect on the bearing capacity and slope stability of the lunar highland soil simulant LSS-ISAC-1. It evaluates the simulant's geotechnical properties under lunar and Earth gravity conditions and compares it with lunar soils and simulants. The study includes plate load tests, single wheel load tests, and assessments of slope stability and self-standing height. The provided text is a mix of metadata and content related to a research paper titled 'Development of a Lunar Regolith Simulant for Use in Space Exploration.' The paper discusses the creation of a lunar regolith simulant using anorthosite rock samples, which were pulverized into specific gradations (30 microns to 1000 microns). The simulant is intended for use in space exploration, particularly for testing equipment and systems in simulated lunar conditions. The paper also includes information about the publication details, such as the journal name, volume, issue, and DOI. Additionally, there are links to various image files associated with the paper, including main images, thumbnails, and downscaled versions. The study investigates the low gravity effects on the bearing capacity and slope
