💨 Abstract

Researchers have confirmed that volcanic eruptions occurred on the far side of the moon billions of years ago. Analysis of lunar soil collected by China's Chang'e-6 spacecraft revealed fragments of volcanic rock, with the oldest dating back to 4.2 billion years. Previous studies suggested the far side might have a volcanic past, and these findings confirm an active history on this little-explored region of the moon.
