Help Map the Moon’s Molten Flows!
official news from : https://bit.ly/2QkyIbY When asteroids hit the Moon, the impacts carve out craters and with enough energy and pressure, melt parts of the rocky surface. Often, the white hot, gooey melt (it’s like lava, except that it doesn’t erupt from underground) sloshes around the new crater and surrounding regions. The molten rock coolsContinue reading “Help Map the Moon’s Molten Flows!”
