New findings from China's Chang'e 6 lunar farside samples offer insights into the moon's volcanic past and mantle evolution.

China’s Chang’e 6 mission uncovers evidence of a molten lunar magma ocean and a violent ancient impact.

Io’s long-debated magma ocean may not exist. Juno spacecraft data reveals that tidal forces deform the moon differently than ...

The first study on the Moon samples brought back by the Chinese Chang'e-6 mission show that the Moon's far side was just as molten as the near one eons ago.

During their research, scientists confirmed the presence of the KREEP layer in the far side samples, suggesting that the magma ocean once spanned the entire moon. However, distinct evolutionary paths ...

Scientists have possibly solved the mystery of the Indian Ocean Geoid Low, a large gravity anomaly discovered in 1948. They ...

[Photo/Xinhua] A new study of the lunar samples collected by China's Chang'e-6 mission has verified the hypothesis that the moon was entirely covered by a molten "magma ocean" in the early stages ...

Recent findings from samples collected by China's Chang'e 6 mission have provided valuable insights into the history of the moon, particularly its far side. The Chang'e 6 mission launched in early ...

These findings validate the lunar magma ocean hypothesis, which states that the moon experienced global-scale melting shortly after its formation, creating a vast magma ocean. As the molten ...
