Episode 144: The Moon: What we learned so far.
from A Cast of Pods · host Jose Acierto
This podcast explores various aspects of the Moon, contrasting scientific findings with pseudoscientific claims. NASA documents detail discoveries made by the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO), including the Moon's shrinking, recent volcanic activity, evidence of water ice, and the potential for underground shelters. A Wikipedia excerpt refutes the "Hollow Moon" conspiracy theory, citing evidence of a solid interior structure. Additional NASA articles discuss the detection of lunar rust and a network of subsurface caves. A final NASA document from 1980 summarizes early findings from the Apollo missions, focusing on the composition and age of lunar rocks and data from surface and orbital experiments.
