An original idea is proposed for energy measurements. The back scattered ra-diation from hadron and electromagnetic cascades generated by the primary particle in the lunar regolith is registered on the Moon surface. There are three components of this radiation including gamma, neutrons and radio. It is proposed to place 100 identical autonomous modules in an area of ~100 m2.This technique gives new opportunities for perspective research: • the direct study of CR in the energy range with individual particle charge resolution up to 1014–1017 eV; • detailed study of superheavy CR nuclei behind the iron peak; • the increase in sensitivity in the study of gamma astronomy is almost two orders of magnitude higher than existing and planned projects. The design and expected statistics were determined, the neutron and gamma background values were estimated. The simulation results are presented.
