The Camelot crater in the Moon's Taurus-Littrow Valley is where the sample containing trivalent titanium was found. NASA/Apollo 17: AS17-145-22159 As a result, the Moon preserves a record of the geological conditions that helped shape it and can give scientists insight into the world we live in today. Rocks that were formed during early volcanic activity on the Moon offer a window into events that occurred nearly 4 billion years ago.
