Researchers at Los Alamos National Laboratory have demonstrated that fiber-optic cables buried in simulated lunar soil can detect small earthquakes, raising the prospect that communication lines on ...

Two recent studies suggest that fiber-optic cables laid directly on the moon's surface could potentially detect moonquakes, offering a simpler way to gather seismic data to support future human and ...

It would be much easier to escape Earth’s gravity if you could skip the energy-intensive rockets. That’s the idea behind the Spaceline, a newly-proposed type of space elevator that would link the ...
