The British newspaper “Daily Mail” reported that scientists have found more than 500 spot rocks exposed on the side the moon Free from crests or soils scattered across this side of the Moon’s surface.
She added that these hills with exposed rocky foundation, evidence that Tectonic activity He broke the moon’s surface not so long ago, and the rock debris managed to slide into cracks and voids leaving rocks exposed.
Most noted The surface of the moon It is covered with rock debris, so it is rare for such open spots to exist, which makes the team of scientists, suggest that this rift be recent, and may continue to this day, as such structures are often covered quickly.
According to scientific studies, most of the moon’s surface consists of Rock debris, Which is a heterogeneous layer covering the rocks, and is composed of dust, dirt and crushed rocks resulting from the continuous bombardment of small meteorites and other effects.
Hills have been seen with exposed rocks before, and scientists have explained their existence with evidence that explains that lava has resulted in these structures, but the recent study found hills that cannot be explained by ancient volcanic activity, which dates back to 4.3 billion years ago, and seems to be related Active tectonic activity.
A team at Brown University, led by Adomas Valentinas, used data from NASA’s lunar orbiting orbit to identify strange open spots in and around the moon’s seas, the large dark spots on the side of the moon.
“The exposed blocks on the surface have a relatively short lifespan because the accumulation of rock debris occurs constantly,” said Peter Shultz, a co-author of the study, from Brown University.
From the observations gathered by the researchers, the team found that the newly discovered 500 exposed rocks were perfectly aligned with the ancient cracks in the crust of the moon detected by a NASA mission in 2014.
“This makes us believe that what we see is a continuous process driven by things happening inside the moon,” Schultz added.
Researchers believe that tectonic activity may have started billions of years ago when the moon encountered a significant impact, because rock debris usually covers the surface quickly, according to the British newspaper.
But the researchers said that such activity is still continuing today, which pushes the hills to rise and break, leaving the foundation stone exposed.
