Scientists have confirmed that there is a cave on the Moon that astronauts can use for long-term missions, Azernews reports.

Scientists have analyzed radar measurements of the lunar probe of the US Aerospace Agency (NASA).

Noting that the cave is located about 400 kilometers from the landing site of the Apollo 11 spacecraft, the scientists said that the cave was formed as a result of the collapse of a lava tube. They noted that this cave could host astronauts for long-term missions in the future, as it is protected from the harsh environmental conditions of the Moon.
