Space objects such as meteoroids and asteroids move across... the solar system and can collide with both Earth and the Moon. However, the Moon shows far more visible impact marks on its surface. One main reason is that Earth has a thick atmosphere that protects the planet. When many meteoroids enter Earth’s atmosphere, they burn up due to friction before they can reach the ground. This process creates the bright streaks of light we call shooting stars. The Moon, however, has almost no atmosphere, so incoming space rocks are not slowed down or burned up. They travel directly to the lunar surface and strike it at very high speed. Each collision creates an impact crater, throwing dust and rocks outward from the impact point. Over billions of years, thousands of these impacts have covered the Moon with craters. Unlike Earth, the Moon also has no wind, water, or weather to erase these craters, so they remain visible for millions or even billions of years. This is why the Moon looks heavily cratered when we observe it from Earth through telescopes.show more

Starliner to the stars! ✨ At 10:52am ET, Boeing... Space #Starliner lifted off on a @ULALaunch Atlas V for the first time with ARCHIVED NASA Astronauts aboard. This Crew Flight Test aims to certify the spacecraft for routine space travel to and from the International Space Station.show more

Launching everything from Earth becomes an expensive way to... do space. SpaceX's path to petawatt-scale power for AI is mass drivers on the Moon. With 1/6 of Earth’s gravity and no atmosphere, a giant electromagnetic launcher could fling solar-powered AI compute into space using electricity instead of burning rocket fuel every single time. Build with lunar materials, launch from the Moon, then use near-constant sunlight to power enormous amounts of compute. The Moon stops being somewhere we visit and starts becoming somewhere we build from. SpaceX / Writer: Annette, Grok Imagine Designer: Jannéshow more

A dramatic moment captures a space rock striking the... Moon’s surface, creating a powerful and sudden impact. The object hits at incredible speed, producing a brief flash and disturbing the lunar surface. With no atmosphere to slow it down, the Moon is constantly exposed to impacts from space rocks, which have shaped its cratered landscape over billions of years. Events like this are happening all the time, but capturing one clearly is rare. This moment gives a glimpse into the dynamic nature of space and how even the Moon continues to change. A brief impact, but a powerful reminder of cosmic activity. #nasa #space #spacexshow more
