Pits On The Moon That Remain At A Temperature Perfect For Living In Are Found by Scientists
These geological structures hover at a comfortable temperature and they could be ideal places for shelter. NASA-funded researchers have found that the shadowed regions in the strange geological structures known as lunar pits hover at a comfortable 17°C (63°F), a wonderful temperature for working and living in. This discovery might fundamentally alter how humans explore the … [Read more...] about Pits On The Moon That Remain At A Temperature Perfect For Living In Are Found by Scientists
Photographer Uses 2 Million Photos to Create GIF of Moon Movement
Andrew McCarthy, an astronomer, spent a month chasing the Moon in order to create a gif that captures the beauty of its movement. He put together a spectacular look at how it "dances in the sky" using over 2 million individual photos. This dance, known as libration, is caused by the Moon's slightly tilted axis and elliptical orbit around Earth. McCarthy set out to make his … [Read more...] about Photographer Uses 2 Million Photos to Create GIF of Moon Movement
According to Statistics, China Nurtured a Plant on The Moon, and it Produced Two Leaves
It marks the first time a plant has been grown on the moon. China made history in January when it landed its Chang'e-4 spacecraft on the far side of the moon. The mission was also the first to experiment with growing plants on the moon, and it transported a mini-biosphere dubbed the Lunar Micro Ecosystem to the lunar surface (LME). Except for the microgravity and cosmic … [Read more...] about According to Statistics, China Nurtured a Plant on The Moon, and it Produced Two Leaves
