Determination of the number of micrometeoroid impact craters on the camera provided an opportunity to make a sensitive direct measurement of the flux of interplanetary dust particles impacting the lunar surface. Optical and scanning electron microscope studies were performed. Low velocity impact and flux analyses are presented.
