CH-3 data reveals unexpectedly active electrical environment at Moon’s South Pole
The discovery made by Chandrayaan-3's lander has revealed a vibrant plasma environment in the Moon's southern polar areas. Recent measurements indicate an unexpected surge in electron densities and energetic particles, surpassing earlier predictions. This dynamic, electrically charged layer is greatly influenced by solar wind and Earth’s magnetic forces, providing vital knowledge that could shape upcoming lunar explorations.
