In 2012 NASA’s GRAIL (Gravity Recovery and Interior Laboratory) mission mapped the gravity of the Moon. Naturally, the gravity was stronger above the mountains and weaker above the craters. But when ...

The data from the U.S. space agency's GRAIL, or Gravity Recovery and Interior Laboratory, mission indicates that the moon's deep interior has an asymmetrical structure, apparently caused by ...

Is the Moon concealing the icy core of an ancient asteroid within its interior? Under the Moon’s greatest intact impact ...

The Moon has always held a certain mystery, especially its far side, hidden from Earth’s view. While telescopes and ...

The two Gravity Recovery And Interior Laboratory (GRAIL) probes were launched in September. The first went into lunar orbit on 31 December 2011, and the second on New Year's Day.

The data on the moon's tidal changes were captured by NASA's satellite -based Gravity Recovery and Interior Laboratory (GRAIL) mission and the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter.

The crucial data came from last year’s Gravity Recovery and Interior Laboratory lunar mission, which allowed Melosh’s team to run two sets of computer code—one that simulated an asteroid ...

NASA's twin Grail spacecraft (short for Gravity Recovery And Interior Laboratory) arrived at the moon over the New Year's weekend, seamlessly slipping into lunar orbit after more than three months ...

New estimates of the thickness of the lunar highlands crust based on data from the Gravity Recovery and Interior Laboratory mission, allow us to reassess the abundances of refractory elements in the ...

Artist's concept of the two Gravity Recovery and Interior Laboratory (GRAIL) spacecraft orbiting the moon. NASA launched the twin probes in September 2011 to study the moon's gravitational field ...

LAUREL, Md. — Two microsatellites developed for an Air Force lab have taken on a NASA mission to map the moon's gravity by using precise formation flying. The Gravity Recovery and Interior ...

NASA's Gravity Recovery And Interior Laboratory (GRAIL)-B spacecraft successfully executed its first flight path correction maneuver Wednesday, Oct. 5. The rocket burn helped refine the spacecraft ...
