The finding could explain the long-running mystery of why the surfaces of the lunar near and far sides are so different.

The data from the U.S. space agency's GRAIL, or Gravity Recovery and Interior Laboratory, mission indicates that the moon's deep interior has an asymmetrical structure, apparently caused by ...

Anomalies in the moon’s gravitational field suggest our satellite’s insides are warmer on one side than the other – which means that its interior is asymmetric ...

(Adobe Stock) The Moon has gravity of its own ... When the sea level rises to its highest point, we call that high tide. When it falls to its lowest point, that's called low tide.

Dr. Janhunen may have found a solution, though. He studied the known lunar gravitational anomalies found by GRAIL. This satellite mapped the moon's gravity in great detail and found several places ...
