The phrase "a potential lunar" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts discussing possibilities or prospects related to the moon, such as lunar missions or lunar resources.
Example: "Scientists are exploring a potential lunar base that could support future space exploration."
Alternatives: "a possible lunar" or "a prospective lunar".
These instruments will contribute to key planetary scientific questions, related to theories of lunar origin and evolution, the global and local crustal composition, the search for cold traps at the lunar poles and the mapping of potential lunar resources.
The remote sensing instruments will contribute to key planetary scientific questions related to theories of lunar origin and evolution, the global and local crustal composition, the search for cold traps at the lunar poles and the mapping of potential lunar resources.
But past studies of potential lunar effects have been tainted by statistical weaknesses, biases, or inconsistent methods, Cajochen says.
Solar wind has been considered as a potential contributor towards lunar exosphere by sputtering of the lunar surface, a process which has been theoretically modelled (Wurz et al. 2007 and references therein).
This refined lunar profile can help astronomers better measure variations in solar diameter--a potential factor in climactic cycles on Earth.
NASA has named the rim of Shackleton as a potential candidate for its lunar outpost, slated to be up and running by 2020 and continuously staffed by a crew by 2024.
Using a 3-D hydrid simulation, Jarvinen et al. (2014) showed the presence of a potential of 300 V at the lunar surface which is associated with the Hall electric field in the anti-Moonward direction that results from the interaction between solar wind and a magnetic dipole mimicking the Gerasimovich magnetic anomaly.
Recent research has highlighted the potential of lunar resources as an important element of space exploration but their viability has not been demonstrated.
Hilton Hotels and Shimizu, a Japanese construction company, are among the companies that disclosed interest during the 1990's in the potential for lunar tourism.
The collection efficiency was very sensitive to surface potential of lunar dust and it reached the maximum when surface potential was between 30 and 120 V.
