Moon Photos Examined to Gauge Safe Moon Landing
Scientists at JPL study 7500 Ranger 8 moon photographs after the 1961 mission. They aim to answer if an American spaceship can land safely on the moon by 1970. Preliminary analysis suggests a frothy rocky surface like crunchy snow that may extend up to 60 feet deep, posing risks. Ranger 9 is planned next month to gather more data.
