Moon Swirls Could Be Magnetized by Unseen Magmas

Lunar swirls are bright, sinuous features on the Moon, visible even from backyard telescopes. Recent studies reveal that these swirls remain light-colored due to magnetized rocks deflecting solar wind particles, which darken the surrounding areas. The magnetization likely originates from underground lava cooling in a magnetic field, creating iron particles that influence the surface. This theory is supported by experiments and could be further explored by upcoming missions, such as NASA's 2025 Lunar Vertex mission to Reiner Gamma. (Learn More)
