A new revelation has emerged regarding the age of our moon, which has always been a favorite for poets and shires.

According to the revelation, the moon is much younger than previously shown. Researchers at the German Aerospace Center say that. The moon is 8.50 million years younger than previously shown. For this, the researchers examined the rocks brought to the earth from the surface of the moon. The Apollo spacecraft brought these rocks to the earth.

Researchers say that according to current estimates, our Moon is 4.51 billion years old, but the fact is that it is 8.50 million years younger than this figure.

Vaitraniko's theory says that when the earth was unbearably hot, a planet called Thea collided with the earth. Then a large piece of rock went into space and it became the moon of the earth. However, even then this piece was very hot. It was as hot for a year as it was for the next 200 million years. It took about the same time for the earth to cool down.

According to researchers, the new age of the moon can be said to be 4.42 billion years. This is 8.50 million years less than the previous age estimate.
