Abstract: The article focuses on NASA's plans to deploy a network of sensors on the moon to address key scientific questions about its geology, formation, and water sources. Despite previous missions, much about the moon’s internal structure, geological activity, and origin remains uncertain, including whether it still has a liquid core or active volcanism. Upcoming Artemis missions aim to place advanced seismometers on both the near and far sides of the moon to study moonquakes and the lunar interior, while robotic and crewed missions will investigate water ice near the lunar south pole, which has implications for both human exploration and understanding the origin of Earth's water. These efforts seek to leverage the moon’s preserved geological record to shed light on the early solar system and Earth’s history. [Extracted from the article]
