January’s Wolf Moon, also a rare supermoon, rises in early 2026 with striking size, ancient winter names, and unusual brightness, offering skywatchers clues about lunar cycles and atmospheric effects.

The Moon exerts a constant physical influence on Earth through gravity, light, and orbital interaction. Its mass shapes ocean movement, its orbit affe.

The Moon has long been treated as a geologically dead world, a frozen relic that finished erupting billions of years ago. A wave of new data is now challenging that assumption, pointing instead to a body that may still be reshaping itself in subtle but significant ways.

Apollo 12's pinpoint landing, resilient teamwork, and decades of enduring data prove how one stormy launch reshaped the science of precision exploration. When Apollo 12 lifted off from Cape Kennedy on November 14, 1969, the skies were threatening rain.

Researchers made a tantalizing discovery after they MacGyver-ed old data from a radar instrument on a satellite gathered 14 years ago from the Moon. When they used the mission data in a fresh new way, they found proof of a Moon cave hiding in plain sight.
