The lunar rocks collected by Apollo astronauts suggested the moon had a strong magnetic field. A new analysis shows the opposite.
Rocks from the Apollo missions show there was strong magnetism on the Moon, but researchers now believe these rocks mark extremely rare increases in magnetic strength. As models have long suggested, ...
It is generally considered certain that the Moon did not have a strong magnetic field in its early days. However, samples contradicted this. Now it is clear why.
The Apollo missions’ strange landing zone has led to decades of incorrect assumptions about the Moon’s magnetic field strength.
