For the first time, a cave accessible from the surface of the Moon has been discovered. This discovery officially paves the way for permanent settlement on the Moon!

The discovered cave is thought to potentially reduce environmental impacts just like on Earth.

When astronauts want to stay on the Moon for extended periods, they face several problems. Space radiation and the extreme temperatures emitted by the Moon prevent humans from staying on the surface for long durations. The most 'natural' and 'cost-effective' solution to this is, of course, caves.

This cave, located approximately 100 meters deep, is in a position that could be used as a lunar base in the future.

To ensure safe living on the Moon, the problem of how to live for extended periods in the Moon’s environmental conditions must first be solved. As you can imagine, transporting materials from Earth and constructing a building there is quite costly for astronauts. The discovered caves are the perfect solution for this mission!

The cave was discovered near the "Sea of Tranquility," where Neil Armstrong first set foot.

It is reported that this cave is one of 200 locations observed so far, many of which were formed by the collapse of lava tubes. The cave is 45 meters wide and 80 meters long, roughly the size of 14 tennis courts.
