Is the moon still geologically active? Evidence says it's possible

84% Informative
Scientists have found 266 "wrinkle ridges" on the lunar far side of the moon.
These ridges appear to have formed during the past 160 million years in volcanic plains on the far side.
The moon may still be geologically active, says planetary geologist Jaclyn Clark of the University of Maryland .
The findings were published on January 21 in The Planetary Science Journal .
If moonquakes are severe enough in some parts of the Moon , they could pose a hazard to human activity on the lunar surface.
Astronauts would have to avoid those areas in order to stay safe.
