NASA is Going Back to the Moon! MONTANA DALTON 2nd period

For better understanding of our own moon, NASA is sending out a rocket tonight to gather information about the dust clouds that's levitating in the air around the moon. Apparently they believe something is cause the dust to be thrown into the air and lock it in a place where it floats. As I watched, I've learned that in the rocket is a spacecraft called LADEE, Luna Atmosphere and Dust Environment Explorer. They are planning to fly LADEE around the moon and through these dust clouds, penetrating the spacecraft, to find out more knowledge as to what these clouds are and how they're getting where they are.

I found this extremely interesting because, what if there is some sort of energy wave or different substance on the moon than on Earth causing this to happen.
