New research suggests the moon had active volcanoes when dinosaurs roamed Earth

New research suggests that volcanoes were still erupting on the moon when dinosaurs roamed Earth. Researchers based their conclusion on an analysis of tiny glass beads brought back from the moon by a Chinese spacecraft. They reported Thursday that moon volcanoes may have persisted until about 120 million years ago, spilling fresh molten lava that cooled to form the lunar surface. That is much more recent than previously thought. An outside scientist says more research is needed to confirm the origin of the beads and the time line.
