The Chang'e 6 mission has made a groundbreaking discovery about our Moon's early history! 🚀🔍 Analyzing just 2 grams of lunar samples from the Moon's far side, scientists confirmed that the Moon was completely covered by a molten \"magma ocean\" shortly after its formation.
This fascinating finding provides crucial insights into the Moon's origin and evolution. Understanding that the Moon was once entirely molten helps scientists piece together the puzzle of how our closest celestial neighbor formed and changed over billions of years.
The research team, led by the China National Space Administration (CNSA), published their findings in the latest issue of the prestigious journal Science. This study not only deepens our knowledge of lunar geology but also paves the way for future explorations and missions to the Moon.
