The satellite earth moon recently discovered natural caves. Now, as the chief of Cosmonauts Training Center. Gagarin Sergei Krikalev, they will place the first lunar base earthlings. Caves on the lunar surface to date have found a few pieces.
They have a hole diameter of 65 meters, the depth of their reach hundreds of meters. Scientists believe it most likely traces of volcanic processes that occurred in the satellite of the Earth in ancient times.
Sergei Krikalev said that in the near future, the Moon will explore more. If we can confirm that the presence of these caves is a mass phenomenon, then this fact will change the development of satellite technology. It will be enough just to open a sealed envelope inside the cave, and do not have to build the walls and ceiling.
In turn, the deputy head of the Cosmonaut Training Center, Boris Kryuchkov said that the thickness of lunar rocks can provide protection for the terrestrial databases directly from the two main threats to space. This high level of radiation and the constant cold. According to recent reports of scientists, lava tunnels on the Moon is approximately constant temperature from - 30 to - 40 degrees Celsius.
