Scientists have discovered a lot about what's inside the Moon, and it's pretty fascinating. Beneath its dusty surface lies a solid inner core, surrounded by a liquid outer core, just like Earth. But here's where it gets interesting: unlike our planet, the Moon doesn't have a magnetic field to protect it from solar radiation, which explains why it's so barren and lifeless. Another cool fact is that the Moon is slowly drifting away from Earth at a rate of about 3.8 centimeters per year. And get this: there are over 400,000 pounds of human-made trash left behind on the Moon from various missions! And did you know that the Moon is about 4.5 billion years old?
