While the Earth and Moon envirosnments, including observational environments, are far different, PERHAPS Meteor Crater Arizona might provide a good test for SOME instruments of an instrument suite.

It asppears that we may are able to observe impactities from altitude, as we have already observed ray patterns from recent impacts.

As far as funding box goes,
we need more money spent on the impact hazard NOW.
