Where Are the Moon rocks? We asked a Nasa Expert
We're in the lunar curation facility here, and this is where the Moon rocks are stored. I'm super excited about the upcoming Artemis missions because we're going to go back to the Moon. We're going to go to the South Pole. We're going to bring back different samples this time.
Studying Moon rocks is really important because we can learn about the Moon. We can learn about Earth. We can learn about their history, their birth together 4.5 billion years ago. And we can also learn about the solar system and the planets within.
This is a clean room facility, and so that means the air gets filtered and we have to wear these special suits. And the Moon rocks are stored in these cabinets that are filled with nitrogen. And we do that because we want to keep them safe from Earth water and Earth atmosphere and of course germs and all sorts of other weird things.
And studying Apollo samples, the Moon rocks we have here, will help us to understand what we can find there and what kind of tools we need, so we can collect more samples and bring them back to study for the next generation of lunar scientists.
