The ‘Moon Cube’ Mystery, Explained

An odd-looking cube was spotted on the surface of the moon by Yutu-2, which gathered a massive public interest over its mysterious origins. The Chinese rover went straight for the structure after its two-week sleep for experts to discern and examine the cube as much as possible. It turns out that the cube is merely a small chunk of rock near an impact crater. According to experts, the ‘cube’ could be a piece of debris from an object such as a comet or asteroid that hit the lunar surface.
