Cosmic rays from beyond our solar system constantly pummel Earth's moon, fundamentally changing the chemistry and color of the lunar ice and dirt, scientists say.

JWST, for example, needs a huge sunshield to protect it from the Sun’s rays. On the Moon, a natural crater rim could provide this shielding for free.

The telescope is called X-ray Imaging and Spectroscopy Mission, or XRISM for short (pronounced like the word “chrism”). The lunar mission is called Smart Lander for Investigating Moon, or SLIM.

Japan's lunar lander has powered down on the moon after its solar cells were unable to generate electricity.

The Earth's Grand Canyon took millions of years to carve, but the moon's grand canyons took about ten minutes.
