This has been possible by re-analayzing a synthetic aperture radar image acquired in 2010 by the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter of NASA with a new radar processing technology recently developed at RSLab. The study has very important scientific implications and is very relevant for shaping future exploration acitvities on the Moon.<\/p>\n<p>The paper is available at this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nature.com\/articles\/s41550-024-02302-y\">link<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The research has worlwide resonance with a huge attention from the media of all the world.
