Analysing gravity data collected by spacecraft orbiting the moon reveals groundbreaking insights about the Moon’s deep internal structure without having to land on the surface. The study offers evidence that a warmer interior on the Moon’s near side compared to the far side created the conditions for volcanic activity, that may have lasted far longer than expected. The findings have been published in the scientific journal Nature by researchers from NASA, University of Arizona, University of California and TU Delft.
