... on the Moon, but we really haven't seen any direct evidence of them. The long sinuous rilles are formed from collapsed lava tubes, which served as pipelines carrying fresh lava to the front lines of lava flows. As the Moon cooled and the lava shrank back down into the ...

... we find old lava tubes and caves, the only way we are going to be going inside the Moon is to dig our way in. Because of the lower gravity, lack of water and lack of thermal activity, humans would be able to tunnel into the Moon to a far greater depth than on Earth. ---- Answer provided by Thomas Matula, Ph.D. & Kenneth J.

... watch it in total silence, though you'd feel the energy transmitted through the ground through your boots. It's harder to judge distance. The Moon is a much smaller sphere than the Earth, and the horizon ... is. With no atmosphere to diffuse any light, everything is optically sharp, but everything on the Moon is rounded and softened by aeons of impacts of all sizes. There is a sharp ... /For%20Kids/KidstoSpace.html Click here Category:Kids To Space Category:Kids To Space - THE MOON
