The regolith evolution on planetary objects is a function of the continuous flux of impactors of various sizes, volcanism, as well as the constant bombardment by solar and galactic energetic particles.

Fig. 17 Time-average magnetic field properties on the CMB (left) and on the surface of Mars (right) in a dynamo model with imposed outer boundary heat flux due to a polar impactor as in Fig. 16.
Figure 16 shows the CMB heat flux patterns resulting from an impactor of 800 km radius falling on the north pole (left) or the equator (right) of Mars' surface.
In contrast, inhibition of autophagy flux was recently reported after contusion TBI (using pneumatic impactor) in GFP-Lc3 mice (53).
The impactor yields an hemispheric field similar to those obtained with synthetic ({Y_{1}^{0}}) CMB heat flux patterns (Amit et al. 2011a; Dietrich and Wicht 2013; Stanley et al. 2008).
How long did the "impactor" travel to reach its target?
Who put the flux in flux?
But we are flux, mere flux.
