TL;DR: The design of the Lunar Exploration Neutron Detector (LEND) experiment was optimized to address several of the primary measurement requirements of NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO): high spatial resolution hydrogen mapping of the Moon's uppermost surface, identification of putative deposits of appreciable near-surface water ice in the Moon polar cold traps, and characterization of the human-relevant space radiation environment in lunar orbit as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: The DAN instrument will use the method of neutron-neutron activation analysis in a space application to study the abundance and depth distribution of water in the martian subsurface along the path of the MSL rover.

TL;DR: If the presence of ice deposits in polar "cold traps" is confirmed, a unique record of many millions of years of lunar history would be obtained, by which the history of lunar impacts could be discerned from the layers of water ice and dust.
