On the lunar surface, however, it’s a different story.
“We also knew that the largest of the shallow moonquakes detected by the Apollo seismometers was located near the south pole.
As part of the mission, two astronauts will spend about a week living and working on the lunar surface.
They can be an opportunity to better study the moon as we do on the Earth with earthquakes,” Husker said.
Studying moonquakes at the south pole will tell us more about the Moon’s interior structure as well as its present-day activity.”
