Researchers prove 120-million-year-old volcanism on moon

Extensive geologic evidence of ancient volcanic activity can be found on the moon, but how long this volcanism persisted has been unclear. However, Prof. Li Qiuli’s Lab at the Institute of Geology and Geophysics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (IGGCAS) has identified three volcanic glass beads from lunar soil samples collected by the Chang’e-5 mission. Extensive geologic evidence of ancient volcanic activity can be found on the moon, but how long this volcanism persisted has been unclear.
