Scientists Confirm Existence of Moon Caves, Potential Future Habitats for Astronauts

Radar data from NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter reveals extensive lava tubes beneath the lunar surface.

Researchers have identified a cave in the Sea of Tranquility, stretching over 200 feet from a surface pit.
Lava tubes on the Moon could provide shelter from extreme temperatures and cosmic radiation.
The discovery supports long-held theories about subsurface lunar structures formed by ancient volcanic activity.
Potential lunar habitats could be established in these caves, offering protection for future missions.
International teams used advanced radar analysis techniques to uncover these findings.
