Light site: The mighty crater Langrenus, 136 km across New evidence shows that the Moon is not a totally dead world as was thought by many astronomers. It does still occasionally stir with activity. Even though they have been reported from time to time for hundreds of years, claims of changes on the lunar surface [...]

NASA scientists have recorded the biggest ever meteorite impact on the Moon, with an explosion equal to 5 tons of TNT. The event is part of ‘lunar meteor showers’ observed by astronauts of the Moon exploration program. The 40-kg meteorite measuring 0.3 to 0.4 meters wide traveling 56,000 mph slammed through the Moon’s surface on [...]

Dr. Edgar Mitchell, the sixth man to walk on the Moon during the Apollo project, recently appeared on a UK radio show where he claimed that aliens are real and that people at NASA has know this for many years. Radio DJ, Nick Margerisson, of Kerrang! Radio, could not believe his ears as Mitchell openly [...]

California wants to register as historical resources the space junk (high-tech and otherwise) left behind by the Apollo 11 crew. When the Apollo 11 astronauts blasted off from the moon, they left behind not just the small steps of men but a giant pile of equipment and junk for all of mankind. Much was cast [...]

ScienceDaily (Mar. 8, 2012) — In the nearly five decades since the first lunar surveys were conducted as part of NASA’s Apollo space program, scientists have advanced a number of increasingly complex theories to explain the vast swaths of highly magnetic material that were found in some parts of the moon’s crust. But now a [...]

NASA has photographed an alien building on the surface of the Moon! Hearing news like this certainly makes one sit up and pay attention, but is it is correct?     The alien edifice is tricky to spot, look to the left of the image and find the East-West meridian. There is a crater almost [...]

I am a huge space enthusiast so when I saw a few of my favorite sites posting the new video from NASA showing the first video from GRAIL (Gravity Recovery and Interior Laboratory) showing the far side of the moon, I figured I should share it as well.  I find the video to be quite [...]

Moon Base Alpha, the dream of astrophysicists and science fiction fans alike may have moved one step closer to reality, thanks to a few bottles of vodka. The Russian space agency Roscosmos has recently invited it’s international brothers NASA and ESA – European Space Agency – over for a vodka or two. Russian it seems is floating [...]

Were Armstrong’s footprints the first? Is the Moon really as barren as we’re told? The makers of Apollo 18 are not the first to suggest something might be up there. In 1835, hopes were high that life would eventually be discovered on our satellite. So when a series of six articles claiming precisely that appeared in the New [...]

New images from NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) spacecraft show the moon’s crust is being stretched, forming minute valleys in a few small areas on the lunar surface. Scientists propose this geologic activity occurred less than 50 million years ago, which is considered recent compared to the moon’s age of more than 4.5 billion years. [...]
