Deep Dielectric Charging May Alter Evolution of Lunar Soil

Data from the Cosmic Ray Telescope and the Advanced Composition Explorer has revealed that energetic charged particles (such as galactic cosmic rays and solar energetic particles) can penetrate deep within the lunar surface, possibly altering the properties of the soil. The moon appears to be a tranquil place, but modeling done by University of New […]
