The first results of the last Chinese mission on the far side of the Moon have been published in Nature: olivine and pyroxene would be present on our satellite as in the Earth's mantle. The title of the study is Chang’E-4 initial spectroscopic identification of lunar far-side mantle-derived materials.
Now investigations shed new light on the processes of lunar formation and evolution on which there were no definite answers yet.
