Giant Ancient Collision May Have ‘Flipped’ the Moon’s Interior, Study Suggests
Scientists analyzing lunar samples from China’s Chang’e-6 mission have uncovered evidence of a colossal ancient asteroid impact. Elevated levels of heavy potassium isotopes suggest extreme heating that drove lighter elements into space, potentially explaining why the Moon’s far side lacks dark volcanic plains seen on the near side.

Lunar Samples Reveal Far Side of the Moon Is Cooler Than Near Side
China’s Chang’e 6 mission has revealed the moon’s far side is cooler than its near side, with samples showing a 180°F difference in formation temperatures. Researchers suggest uneven distribution of radioactive elements shaped these contrasts, offering the first physical evidence of a deep interior thermal divide in lunar history.

India’s PRATUSH Computer Could Detect Signals From the Universe’s First Stars: Report
RRI’s PRATUSH—a credit-card-sized computer payload—will detect faint radio signals from hydrogen to study the “Cosmic Dawn”. Designed for deployment on the Moon’s far side, the system offers noise-free, efficient data handling using an SBC and FPGA combo. If successful, it could help determine when the first stars formed and expand our ...
