A new study conducted by scientists from China has shed light on magnetic anomalies detected on Earth\u2019s only natural satellite, the Moon.<\/p>\n<p>The research, led by Zhuang Guo from the Institute of Geochemistry of the Chinese Academy of Sciences which was recently published in the journal Nature Communications, pointed at the presence of magnetite in the samples of lunar soil retrieved by China\u2019s Chang\u2019e 5 probe that visited the Moon in 2020.<\/p>\n<p>Noting the morphology of the iron-sulfide grains in the Chang\u2019e 5 samples, which contained the magnetite particles, the authors of the study argued that it was likely a product of \u201clarge-impact events\u201d on the lunar surface.<\/p>\n<p>The team thus identified ferromagnetic materials brought by the aforementioned impact events, and \u201cmagnetization of the ferromagnetic minerals in the presence of external magnetic fields,&#8221; as key factors in the generation of magnetic anomalies on the surface of the Moon.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese formation conditions result in a matching relationship between the magnetic anomaly distribution in the lunar crust and the distal ejecta of large impacts,\u201d the researchers surmised in their paper.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/cape-verde\">Cape verde<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Cape verde.
