Though less common than earthquakes, the moon actually has moonquakes, too. That's right. Moonquakes. Pretty much everyone is interested in space, so this is always a good fact to pull out.

Absolutely, it's fascinating to know that the moon experiences its own version of seismic activity called moonquakes.

yes you're right and i think that's the reason why moon has so many shrink holes?

That's really interesting! I didn't know that the moon had quakes too. I guess it makes sense since the moon is also a celestial body and has its own geological activity. Do you know what causes moonquakes? Are they similar to earthquakes?

result of meteoroids hitting the surface or by the gravitational pull of the Earth squeezing and stretching the moon's interior, in a similar way to the moon's tidal pull on Earth's oceans.2-1BMed67drouel wrote: Sun Sep 03, 2023 7:55 am That's really interesting!
