Lunar Research

Lunar research involves studying the Moon to understand its composition, geology, history, and environment. Scientists analyze lunar rocks, soil, and data from satellites and landers to learn about its formation, surface processes, and potential resources. This research helps us understand the Moon’s origin, evolution, and how it compares to Earth. It also supports future exploration plans, such as establishing habitats or mining for resources. Overall, lunar research deepens our knowledge of our closest celestial neighbor and informs broader planetary science.
