Scientists know that the Moon is shrinking (albeit very slowly), and this lunar down-sizing could have a seismic impact on future Artemis Moon missions. A new study funded by NASA concludes that ...

As a result, the lunar surface is contracting and becoming more brittle – and in turn more prone to seismic tremors known as 'moonquakes'. If these tremors cause landslides, they could be a ...

Researchers examined lunar soil samples collected during the ... A new study found 22,000 previously unidentified lunar seismic events recorded between 1969 and 1977 Rudy Molinek Fifty-five ...

A conceptual lunar fiber seismic network (Background lunar surface image from NASA). The base station provides space and power for the DAS interrogator, data processing unit and telecommunicating ...

For the Demonstration Mission Space a dedicated scenario from the ROBEX lunar scientists was chosen. The scenario describes the installation of an active seismic network (ASN) on the Moon’s surface.

and lunar physics—including shifts in the moon's liquid core as it orbits Earth, which may cause seismic activity on the lunar surface. Credit: NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center "NASA has more ...

The epicenter of one of the strongest moonquakes recorded by the Apollo Passive Seismic Experiment was located in the lunar south polar region. However, the exact location of the epicenter could ...

This video shows part of the lunar analogue mission. As part of the experiment, the rover drives to the lunar lander and uses the robotic arm to release the seismic instrument from its screw ...

taking photographs and setting up instruments to record the seismic activity on the Moon. Then they re-entered the Lunar Module, discarded some of the equipment they no longer needed and settled ...

This discovery settles a long-standing mystery, reshaping our understanding of lunar history and its impact ... With humanity eyeing a return to the Moon, seismic verification awaits.

In a move that could pave the way for an incredibly ambitious stint of lunar exploration, China has announced intentions to establish an extensive array of cameras on the Moon! Dubbed Skynet 2.0 ...
