Magnetic Compass Moon at Janet Cantrell blog

Magnetic Compass Moon. A compass works by aligning itself with the earth's magnetic field. New simulations from the mit weiss group rule out plasmas caused by meteoroid impacts. The moon's crust has remnant magnetization from a magnetic field, but how the field was generated is a mystery. Survival on the moon scenario: You are a member of a space crew originally scheduled to rendezvous with a mother ship on. A new study reveals how the diminutive moon could have been an occasional magnetic powerhouse early in its history, a question that has confounded researchers since. Unlike the earth, the moon does not currently have a magnetosphere—the planet’s magnetism that makes compasses work, and helps shield our upper atmosphere. Mit scientists have pinned down the timing of the end of lunar dynamo. The findings suggest the moon’s magnetic field was produced by the fallout of a crystallizing iron core. The moon has no appreciable magnetic field, so a compass.

Moon’s field lasted twice as long as we thought it did New Scientist
