Lunar Glass Beads Reveal Moon's Volcanic Past | JQJO

Analysis of orange glass beads, collected during the Apollo missions, reveals insights into the Moon's volcanic past. These microscopic beads, formed billions of years ago during explosive eruptions, have been studied using advanced techniques. Researchers discovered variations in bead color and composition, indicating changes in volcanic activity over time. The beads provide a unique record of the Moon's interior evolution during its geologically active youth, acting as 'time capsules' from a dynamic solar system.
