The Hehu Lake has a ridge stretching to the southeast and south. The edge is fuzzy and irregular, and the color of the edge is lighter than that of the middle. The reason may be that the impact of meteorites mixed dark lunar sea lava with light highland rocks.There is a view that the dark surface of the northern part of the sea is not exposedMoon SeaLava, butVolcaniclastic rock, but this statement is still controversial;In addition, the spectral data reveal the difference between the rocks in the northeast and southwest of the Moon Lake;It may be the result of two different eruptions.
The surface of luxury lake is lower than the benchmarkLunar surfaceIt is 2.5-2.6km high and at the same level with the surrounding Xiaoyuehai Lake.
Geological history

edit
The Freundlich Sharonov Basin, where Hehu Lake is located, was formed inPre Jiuhai PeriodAnd the Moon Sea appeared later. It is estimated that the Moon Lake was formed inLate Yuhai。The average size of the crater reflects that the moon lake was covered by lava 3.7 billion years ago, and there was another eruption 2-3 billion years later, which produced a lava cover thickness of 15-30 meters, and destroyed all impact craters less than a few hundred meters.3.3 billion years ago, the northern part of the Moon Lake may have been covered by lava for many times, with a stratum thickness of 10-20 meters. At that time, the lava spread to the vicinity of the Baibeiluo crater.
