"The Moon is a mystery. For all its familiarity–the regularity of its phases, the fact that everywhere on Earth it looks the same–the Moon has always been an enigma, a luminous question mark rolling across the night sky.


In this new video from Cosmic Journeys, we learn about some of the latest scientific research into the structure and history of the Moon. In particular, we learn the latest ideas on what is perhaps the greatest of lunar mysteries: the question of how the Moon got there in the first place."

Good video. The mapping of Earth’s groundwater was cool. Why haven’t we mapped the Moon, Mars and other bodies in our solar system for groundwater?
