Lunar Science

Lunar Science is the study of the Moon, encompassing its composition, structure, processes, and history. It involves various scientific disciplines, including geology, astronomy, and planetary science, to understand the Moon's formation, the nature of its surface and interior, and its relationship with Earth. Lunar science also investigates the impact of solar radiation, micrometeorite bombardment, and the Moon's effects on Earth, such as tides. Research in this field aids in uncovering the Moon's evolution, identifying resources (such as water ice), and preparing for future exploration missions, including potential human settlements. Lunar science plays a crucial role in broader planetary science, providing insights into other celestial bodies in our solar system.
