China’s spacecraft Yutu-2 detected two glass spheres on the Moon’s surface. Detailed research on the chemical structure of the semi-transparent glass spheres could not be done. Space researchers think that as a result of this discovery, more detailed information about the history of the Moon can be obtained.
The Chinese spacecraft, which has been examining the ‘dark’ side of the Moon, which cannot be observed from Earth, since 2019 Yutu-2made a remarkable discovery. With this discovery, two ball-like glass spheres were detected on the far side of the Moon. Authorities said the glass discovered translucent they announced it. Yutu-2 was unable to do any technical research on the structure of the balls. So, is it normal to have glass structures on the Moon that are almost perfectly spherical?
As a matter of fact, glass is too much for the Moon. not surprising material. Because high temperature and silicate cause glass formation on the Moon. Given that both of these compounds are abundant on our natural satellite, it’s hardly surprising that glass is naturally found on the Moon. However, the almost smooth structure of the glasses discovered on the Moon suggests that the spheres found were made by humans.
Here are the glass spheres Yutu-2 discovered on the Moon
There are many glass spheres of similar structure on the lunar surface. However, the spheres discovered by Yutu-2 draw attention, especially in terms of their size. So much so that the sizes of similar spheres found on the Moon are generally 1mm and below would be. However, the dimensions of these spheres Varies in the range of 15 to 25 mm. But this is not the first time. Because 40 mm glass spheres were discovered on the Apollo 16 mission.

Space researchers are delighted with the discovery of Yutu-2. In fact, according to some experts, these large spheres, Understanding the lunar history will play a very important role. However, in order for these to happen, the globules on the Moon’s surface must somehow be formed. needs to be examined in detail. How this will happen remains a mystery for now.
