      Can’t wait to see the results of ground penetrative radar of future planned missions! Super interesting

      Imagine being on Earth and seeing the moon with an active volcano eruption. I wonder what it would look like. Probably just a dark spot from the plume.

      I’m not surprised considering the orbit is not a stable one. Even though it’s tidally locked, the perihelion and aphelion are growing by 3.8 centimeters per year. Plus the difference between the two causes some significant tidal forces to pull on the moons surface.

      So does that mean maybe there’s finally a reason to go back after we quit going there half a century ago? Far out, man.
