We investigated the area of the proposed landing site of the Luna-Glob mission. Currently, the area located near the Boguslavsky crater (72°B 54'S, 43°16'E) in the south polar region of the Moon was selected as the possible landing site of the Luna-Globe mission, which is planned for 2020. We used data from the Lunar Orbiter Laser Altimeter (LOLA) Digital Elevation Model (DEM) to calculate the morphometric parameters of this area, such as slope, aspect and altitude of the each surface element. ' The neutron spectrometer LEND onboard LRO probe has detected a decrease in the epithermal neutron flux in this area, which has been interpreted as the presence of increased hydrogen content in the soil. There are several sources of hydrogen-containing compounds in the polar regions of the Moon: 1) solar wind, 2) collisions of asteroids, comets or micrometeorites with the surface of the Moon and 3) degassing.The lifetime of such deposits is determined by the rate of the of their vaporization, which is a function of temperature. We calculated the temperature regime and investigated the possibility of the existence of water ice in this area.
