[b]Harry Coumnas[/b], a famous astrophysicist along with his team solved one of the great mysteries of the moon, and took a new frame of reference. After the Soviet spacecraft Luna 3 transmitted the first images from the other side of the moon, it looked familiar. Many earthly astronomers saw ‘seas’ with small telescopes and a couple of smaller dark areas covering 2% of the surface.

It was the question from the past 110 years that “What is there at the dark side of the moon?” and it was a puzzle. To solve this mystery he said, “I clearly remember the first time I saw the globe of the moon, being struck how different the far side looks. It was all mountains and craters. It turns out it’s been a mystery since the fifties. The Moon's size, relative to Earth, has also been a puzzle with the theory that it was formed from debris thrown up when an object the size of Mars collided with the Earth.”
