NASA has not yet confirmed what this is a picture of, and the YouTube video has already gone viral with over two million views and counting.<\/p>\n<p>The owner of the video, YouTube user wowforreal, started investigating the shadow after receiving an online tip from another web user, Australia\u2019s 9News reported. Wowforreal was also careful to post a link to an article that points out the photo could be explained in a number of ways, including as a trick of light.<\/p>\n<p>Viewers commenting on the video have attributed the figure to everything from an alien to fictional space traveler The Little Prince to Slender Man, also a fictional character. Most commenters, however, dismiss it as trick photography.<\/p>\n<p>Until NASA comes up with an explanation, here\u2019s the video:<\/p>\n<figure><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/7QdYvelStn8?rel=0\" width=\"100%\" height=\"350px\" data-origwidth=\"100%\" data-origheight=\"350px\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/figure>\n<p>The geometric lunar feature dubbed a \u2018mystery hut\u2019 has stumped scientists, who say they plan to take a closer look<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/th-thumbnailer.cdn-si-edu.com\/Gkq4qqAUiNm8rasm3STi96yK-wE=\/1000x750\/filters:no_upscale():focal(1099x534:1100x535)\/https:\/\/tf-cmsv2-smithsonianmag-media.s3.amazonaws.com\/filer_public\/82\/b7\/82b774bc-1182-457a-9ef1-517465a3f9fe\/lunarcubeourspace.jpeg\" width=\"691\" height=\"518\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>An intriguing\u00a0cube-shaped object spotted on the far side of the moon has attracted the attention of scientists.<\/p>\n<p>China\u2019s Yutu 2 rover captured images of the mystery structure from around 260 feet away while navigating across the Von K\u00e1rm\u00e1n crater in the South Pole-Aitken Basin on the moon, reports\u00a0<em>Popular Science<\/em>\u2019s Margo Milanowski. Chinese scientists have already rerouted the rover to take a closer look, but it will take a few months for Yutu 2 to reach the bizarre lunar feature.<\/p>\n<div class=\"eyeo\" data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1655783\" data-uid=\"18088\">\n<div id=\"mgw1655783_18088\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The shape was spotted on the horizon in November during the mission\u2019s 36th lunar day, according to a Yutu 2 diary published by\u00a0<em>Our Space<\/em>, a Chinese language science outreach channel affiliated with the China National Space Administration.\u00a0<em>Our Space<\/em>\u00a0first described the object in a post last week, temporarily dubbing it a \u201cmystery hut\u201d (\u795e\u79d8\u5c0f\u5c4b\/shenmi xiaowu).<\/p>\n<p>Since Yutu 2 spotted the \u201cmystery hut,\u201d scientists have changed the six-wheeled vehicle course to investigate the cube. The solar-powered rover will spend two to three lunar days\u2014equivalent to two\u00a0to three months time on Earth\u2014traversing the lunar landscape to take a closer look, so we should have more clues shortly, reports Andrew Jones for\u00a0<em>Space<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The rover\u2019s images immediately sparked debate as to what the cube-shaped object was\u00a0and inspired humorous guesses. \u201cWas it a home built by aliens after the crash landing? Or is it the pioneer spacecraft of the predecessors to explore the moon?\u201d writes Our Space.<\/p>\n<p>The \u201chut\u201d may simply be a large boulder that\u2019s been pushed up by meteor impact and taken on a geometric look in the low-resolution image. The blog post noted that there is an impact crater beside the mystery hut, further suggesting that the cube could just be an excavated lunar rock.<\/p>\n<p>This latest discovery\u00a0isn\u2019t the first curious thing the Yutu 2 rover has seen since its arrival on the far side of the moon almost three years ago. In September 2019, the rover encountered a strange,\u00a0gel-like substance that turned out to be melted rock fragments cemented together from extreme heat. This year, Yutu 2 spotted unusual shards sticking out from the lunar surface that turned out to be rocks launched by a meteor impact, reports\u00a0<em>Gizmodo<\/em>\u2019s George Dvorsky.<\/p>\n<p>Whatever the cube-shaped object\u00a0is, we will have to wait another few months before getting an answer\u2014until then, it\u2019s fun to speculate on what the \u201cmystery hut\u201d could be.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Courtesy: YouTube If seeing is believing then these lunar images from NASA and Google Earth seem to prove that there really is a Man on the Moon.
