China finds a ‘mysterious hut’ on the moon

Permanent eavesdropping of the Earth with one side of the moon. The face is on the opposite side of the Earth. Due to the distance, we call this region ‘Far Side of the Moon. That’s where Von Carman Crater is located. For three years, China has sent robotic vehicles to this crater. A strange ‘hut’ has recently been caught on the camera of the robot vehicle named Yutu-2.

The image is blurry — the usual rocky ground, regardless of the moon. However, a little higher than the ground, a square shape can be seen. In a post on the Chinese version of the social media WeChat, the China National Space Administration (CNSA) described the figure as a ‘mysterious hut.’ They wrote, ‘Is this a house made by aliens after an emergency landing with a bit of fun? Or any spacecraft sent by the predecessors to know the moon? ‘

The Science Alert report states that it is more normal not to have either. On the contrary, there is no shortage of objects on the moon; perhaps that is a piece of rock. But there is no chance to say for sure right now. And that’s why Yutu-2 will be sent closer to the object to understand what it is. At present, the object’s distance from the place where the robotic vehicle is is about 260 feet. However, the robotic vehicle will not cross the Setuku distance before two to three months.

YUTU-2 runs on solar energy. It cannot run without sunlight, especially at night. And the moonlit night is two weeks long. Again, if the sun is just above the head due to overheating, it is not run for fear. Apart from that, the robotic vehicle is moving slowly, avoiding the ditches and understanding the path.

There is more trouble. If the object is assumed to be a slightly elevated rock above the ground, then there may be a newly formed hole nearby. The rock that came out of the hole hit the hole. In the case of the moon, there has been such an impact of an object coming from space many times before.

Apart from that, Yutu-2 has already found something strange on the far side of the moon. In 2019, many gel-like substances were found. It was later revealed that it was actually glass made by melting moon stones.

The moon does not have the same atmosphere as the Earth. When a rock falls from space, it hits the lunar surface directly. In the case of the Earth, it burns out as it passes through the atmosphere.

Even if the ‘mysterious hut’ is not as mysterious as the evidence of alien existence, it can increase our knowledge of the moon. For example, suppose it is a rock rising from the bottom of the lunar surface. In that case, it can give an idea about the formation of rocks below the surface layer of the moon. Naturally, CNSA scientists will start research on it.

Yutu-2 was named on the lunar surface in January 2019. Initially, it was only to be sent for three months. While the third year is ending, it is still working smoothly.
