How jagged moon dust could support future astronauts‎

Lunar dust can be a pain—but it's also literally the ground we will have to traverse if we are ever to have a permanent human settlement on the moon. In that specific use case, its clingy, jagged, staticky properties can actually be an advantage, according to a new paper recently published in Research from scientists at Beihang University, who analyzed the mechanical properties of samples returned by the Chang'e 6 mission to the far side of the moon.
