Researchers have studied structures in the lunar maria that indicate earthquakes. These could also affect manned missions.

Scientists studying Earth’s only natural satellite have discovered compelling evidence that the Moon is not a static world but is still slowly shrinking, with implications for future lunar ...

Scientists have produced the first global map and analysis of small mare ridges (SMRs) on the moon, a characteristic geological feature of tectonic activity. The team’s discovery of how SMRs form ...

A new discovery on the Moon has scientists excited. NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) has identified a fresh crater, one that’s smaller than most, yet remarkable in its characteristics. This ...
