Every day, as the sun rises and sets on the lunar horizon, the moon’s surface experiences subtle tremors, known as “moonquakes.” But not all moonquakes are created equal, and some have origins that might surprise you. A recent study from the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) delved into the nature of these moonquakes, revealing some unexpected findings. The moon, devoid of an atmosphere, undergoes extreme temperature fluctuations. During the lunar day, temperatures can soar to 250°F, plummeting to a chilling -208°F at night. This dramatic temperature swing causes the moon’s surface to expand and contract, leading to the phenomenon of … Continue reading Moonquakes Decoded: Apollo’s Astonishing Discoveries Behind Lunar Tremors!
