Moonquakes

Deep moonquakes, occurring hundreds of kilometers below the surface, are theorized to be influenced by Earth's tidal forces, demonstrating the interconnectedness of our celestial neighbor. The book begins with seismology and lunar geology fundamentals, then details the different types of moonquakes: deep, shallow, thermal, and impact-induced. By analyzing the frequency, location, and characteristics of these moonquakes, scientists can infer the composition and physical properties of the lunar interior.

Moonquakes culminates with a discussion of the implications of moonquake research for future lunar exploration, resource utilization, potential seismic hazards, and the search for water ice deposits.
