This discovery challenges existing assumptions, because both abundant oxygen and liquid water, normally required for rust formation, are largely absent on the Moon.

How Earth’s ‘wind’ is secretly rusting the Moon: Scientists reveal the truth

Scientists have been trying to find ways to make the Moon a habitat for humans which has sustainable resources required for life to thrive on it. Taking this mammoth task a step ahead, the Chinese scientists are now trying to establish a mechanism to produce water on the Moon using lunar soil.

China is producing drinking water from lunar soil. Can humans turn Moon into a habitat?

In India, if you are in the deserts of Rajasthan (north-west) during peak summer, the temperature could well be around 50 degrees Centigrade. Likewise, if you are in Jammu and Kashmir (north) during winters, the temperature could well be minus 10 degrees Centigrade or even colder.

From Rajasthan's heat to Kashmir's cold: Chandrayaan-3 finds massive lunar soil temperature variation

We've grown up learning about photosynthesis i.e., the ability of plants to turn carbon dioxide into oxygen. But do you know that Moon's soil can turn carbon dioxide into oxygen and fuels too?

Scientists find proof of 'extraterrestrial photosynthesis'. Here's what it is, how it can help us
