Mercury: First Spectra from 0.7 to 5.5 µm Support Low FeO and Feldspathic Composition

• Spectral measurements of Mercury's surface show an absence of absorptions centered near 0.9 and 1.2 micrometers. At the Moon these absorption bands are ubiquitous at varying depths. We have obtained spectra from the Moon for comparison. The lunar results
