Boulders with unusual magnetic properties spotted on the Moon

In the Rainer Gamma region of the Moon, experts have noticed boulders that have strange magnetic properties. About it reported at the University of Münster in Germany.

Experts say that these meter-long boulders reflect sunlight differently than other similar objects.

“These new findings help scientists understand the processes that shape and modify the lunar crust.”says a press release from the educational institution.

Ottaviano Rusch from the Institute of Planetary Science noted that current knowledge about the magnetic properties of the Earth’s natural satellite is very limited. The boulders found in the Rainer Gamma region, he said, will help to learn more about the history of the Moon and its magnetic core.

It is noted that the boulders were found during the analysis of images of lunar rocks, which was carried out using artificial intelligence.
