Variables involved in integrating the cratering distribution. In the rest frame of the Moon, the common velocity of impactors is v (direction of the arrows). The hemisphere bounded by two positions where v (arrows on two sides) is parallel to the local horizons is the bombarded hemisphere, whose center, where v (arrow in the middle) is perpendicular to the lunar surface, is the normal impact point. Denotations are explained in the text.
