Search for Moonquakes And Marsquakes on Bing

The first thing to know about moonquakes is this: They last forever. While most earthquakes are over in under a minute, moonquakes can last for an afternoon. In the 1970s, at least one 5.5-magnitude moonquake shook the lunar surface at full force for more than 10 minutes straight, then tapered off gradually over the course of several hours.

  • Overview | Dynamic Moon
    Seismometers left on the surface of the Moon by Apollo astronauts have revealed that the Moon experiences moonquakes. Deep moonquakes, occurring hundreds of miles beneath the lunar surface, are tidal events – they result from the pull of Earth’s gravity tugging and stretching the Moon’s internal structures.
