Scientists explore Sun’s damaging radiation on the Moon
With NASA planning to put astronauts back on the Moon, scientists have explored how Sun’s damaging radiation left scars on the lunar surface.
A team from the University of California-Berkeley studied data from NASA’s ARTEMIS mission along with simulations of the Moon’s magnetic environment.
ARTEMIS is short for Acceleration, Reconnection, Turbulence, and Electrodynamics of the Moon’s Interaction with the Sun.
