Description
The first lunar rocks brought back to Earth in decades show the Moon was volcanically active more recently than previously thought, Chinese scientists said Tuesday. "It was thought previously that volcanic activity on the moon stopped around 2.8 to 3 billion years ago. But we discovered that no, there was still activity around 2 billion years ago," says Li Xianhua, one of the authors of the study. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
