French scientists at a lab in Paris are studying moon rocks from China’s Chang’e-5 mission. They are using special tests to learn how the moon was formed and how it has changed over time.
These rocks were given to scientists from several countries, including France, Germany, Japan, Pakistan, the UK, and the US, for research.
Professor Frederic Moynier brought the samples from China to his lab. He said these rocks are special because they came from a place on the moon that had never been studied before, and they are younger than the rocks collected by the Apollo missions.
The tests showed that volcanoes on the moon were active longer than scientists used to think. The French team is comparing these rocks with others to better understand the moon’s history.
This project also shows how countries like China and France are working together in space science. A Chinese student in the lab said this teamwork helps both sides learn more.
The study is not just about science—it also shows how people from different countries can share knowledge and work together.
