Particles from Earth’s atmosphere have been carried into space by solar wind and have been landing on the moon for billions of years, mixing into the lunar soil, according to a new study. The research ...
Astronomers discovered a "quasi-satellite" of Earth, also known as a "quasi-moon," dubbed 2025 PN7 in 2025. NASA told Snopes that 2025 PN7 has been in its current configuration "since at least the ...
A new study reveals that tiny fragments of Earth's atmosphere are transported to and absorbed by the moon via gusts of solar wind and our planet's magnetic field, upending a 20-year-old theory based ...
Tiny bits of Earth’s atmosphere have been drifting to the moon for billions of years, guided by Earth’s magnetic field. Rather than blocking particles, the magnetic field can funnel them along ...
