The space station and one other Easter egg — the site of NASA's next human moon landing — are hidden in this lucky photo.
are hidden on the far side of the moon — the side that always faces away from Earth — near the lunar south pole, where NASA’s Artemis III mission aims to land humans in late 2026.
Asteroid 2024 YR4 is on a potential crash course with Earth, but there’s a very slight chance the moon could take the hit. Based on current observations, there is a 2.1 per cent chance that the ...
The moon may still be geologically active, judging from the way the lunar far side is wrinkling as the moon contracts. At least, that's what planetary scientists who have discovered 266 lunar ...
That's good news for scientists and NASA, which is looking to land astronauts at the south pole on the near, Earth-facing ...
Even though these particular lunar craters aren't visible from your backyard, Kring says there are similar, but smaller ...
Wrinkle ridges are a well-studied phenomenon on the lunar near side — the face of the moon that we can see hanging in the sky. The near side is characterized by the famous "Man in the Moon" — a ...
Even though these particular lunar craters aren't visible from your backyard, Kring says there are similar, but smaller canyons on the near side of the moon that's visible in the night sky.
That means NASA's targeted exploration zone around the pole mostly on the moon's near side won't be buried under debris, keeping older rocks from 4 billion plus years ago exposed for collection by ...
