Lunar Water Dichotomy Revealed by Chang'e 6

Analysis of Chang'e 6 basalt samples reveals significantly less water in the Moon's far side mantle (1–1.5 μg/g) than in the near side (1–200 μg/g), challenging previous models and offering insights into lunar formation and evolution.

How do the findings from the Chang'e 6 mission challenge previous models of lunar water distribution, and what broader implications does this have for lunar geology?

The lower water content in the far side mantle, specifically within the South Pole-Aitken basin, suggests a potential hemispherical dichotomy in lunar water abundance. This finding supports the hypothesis that the giant-impact event that formed the Moon played a significant role in shaping its water distribution and subsequent evolution.

What evidence of magma activity on the far side of the moon was recently discovered by Chinese scientists?

Chinese scientists have discovered evidence of magma activity on the far side of the moon, lasting for at least 1.4 billion years (4.2 to 2.8 billion years ago). This discovery is based on samples retrieved from the Chang'e 6 mission.
