Just as the use of new tools revolutionized lunar science in 1610 (Galileo’s telescope), 1840 (photography), and 1960s–1970s and 1990s (over 45 robotic and human missions to the Moon), data from science-driven, international lunar missions that have flown since 2000 (Gaddis et al. 2023, this volume) and technology-driven sample observations and computational methods have provided a 21st century perspective for the thermal and magmatic evolution of the Moon. In this chapter, we integrate all these observations to reexamine the steps forward that have been taken since publication of the New Views of the Moon 1 (NVM1) in 2006 (...
