Chinese Scientists Discover that the Hidden Face of the Moon Is Colder than the Side Seen From Earth
A group of Chinese scientists discovered that the mantle of the hidden face of the Moon is relatively colder than that of the visible side, based on the analysis of samples collected by the lunar probe Chang'e 6. State media reported this Monday. The finding, published on the website of Nature Geoscience magazine, was a joint effort of the Beijing Institute of Geology Research – dependent on China's National Nuclear Corporation – the University …
New Research Indicates the Far Side of the Moon is Colder than Its Near Side
The stark differences in proximity and width between the moon’s near and far sides, along with their topography, volcanism, and crustal structures, offer crucial insights into the moon’s formation and evolution. However, investigations into the mechanisms behind this hemispherical asymmetry have been constrained by the absence of far-side samples. A recent study revealed fragments of [...] The post New Research Indicates the Far Side of the Moon…

Chinese Scientists Find Moon's Far Side "Colder" than Near Side
Chinese Scientists Find Moon's Far Side "Colder" than Near SideChinese scientists found the far side of the Moon is colder deep within its interior than the side that always faces Earth. They discovered that the rocks were formed from lava deep within the Moon's interior at a temperature of about 1,100 degrees Celsius, about 100 degrees Celsius cooler than existing samples from the near side.The study, published in the journal Nature Geoscience …
