Well well well. We have one drip of a story here. It appears that like the Earth, our moon has a liquid core.

The hardware to find out this little factoid was created forty years ago. The software was created far more recently.

Now that we know about Luna's liquid core, it will be easier to pry more of her secrets out of her dark past.

Honestly my opinion is before the moon and all the space you should care about your planet before.
It's like a house you can't clean the house if you can't clean the chitchen
You can't control the universe or the moon or whatever if you can't even control your planet.
Thanks for reading

Too true.

Then again, factoids do drop in your lap once in a while about a neighbor that may tell a truth or two about you. That truism is as true for planetary bodies as it is for people.

This little truism is as interesting to me about the technology used to discover it as it was about the little truth it told. Now how much old tech is laying around Earth awaiting new lives? Old cell phones perhaps?

Interesting information. But since you did not add a link for people to get more information if they want to, I'll include one here. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-1344980/Moon-liquid-core-just-like-Earth-reveal-sensors-left-lunar-surface-astronauts-40-YEARS-ago.html
