Radar study reveals complex subsurface history near the Moon’s south pole—raising construction and landing-site risks
A new radar-based investigation probes buried layers in one of the Moon’s most impact-battered regions, finding evidence of ancient impacts, frozen melt sheets, and billions of years of overlapping debris. The results suggest the geological environment underpinning south-pole outpost plans may be far more heterogeneous than expected.
