I was talking to a friend once about how the astronauts all said that when they launched FROM the moon it made a sound like a giant bell being rung..(adding to the conspiracy theories that the moon is hollow).. my friend argued that it wouldn't make any sound cause they're in space.. I argued that since the moon obviously has gravity that it might have some sort of gaseous atmosphere and thus could carry soundwaves..

thoughts...?

When anything impacts a solid body with enough force, the impact creates two types of body waves, primary or P waves and secondary or S waves, and two types of surface waves, Rayleigh and Love waves.
Liquids do not transmit S-waves. The moon's core has solidified, and it has solidified off center from the center of the moon's sphere because of Earth's gravitational attraction. Any time a solid body transmits seismic body waves, it can be said to "ring like a bell" because the molecules and atoms of the rocks (or plasma in the Sun) move back and forth like the molecules and atoms of a bell does when it is struck. NASA has also used the same phrase "rings like a bell" for the sun.

Lunar and Planetary Science Conference reports published in the Journal of Geophysical Research, Solid Earth


BUT the moon has no atmosphere, so how would you hear it?

I guess the seismic waves could ring through the astronauts' pressurized space cabin...and therefore they could hear it?  I don't know.

I don't think hollowness could be concluded from the ringing.

wheres JSG?    wanted to tell her Fleet Foxes is in toronto tonight, and a certain cute bassist with angular cheekbones will be in the house.


What?! Huh?!!!? I love cute bassists.  Wink 

(confusion clearing... I think)

Oh, man, you mean Brad??! I heart Brad! Dang, give a gal some notice willya? I have plans. Ok, nothing major, but made the commitment to my friend and my Pilates trainer, but that's not till 8:40, and by the time I get home 't'will be too late to get to Massey Hall, which is nowhere near my house. I'm not such a huge fan of Fleet Foxes anyway, but woulda been cool to see Mr. Traux. Maybe I'll shock him and send him a text...

Ok, I'm off. Later, peeps.

me neither..

I was wondering if the moon had ANY kind of atmosphere. whatever type of gas or whatever.

The Moon has an atmosphere so thin as to be almost negligible, with a total atmospheric mass of less than 104 kg.[37] The effective surface pressure of this small mass is around 3  × 10-15 atm [38]. This pressure varies, of course, with the diurnal moon cycle. One source of its atmosphere is outgassing—the release of gases such as radon that originate by radioactive decay processes within the crust and mantle.[citation needed] Another important source is generated through the process of sputtering, which involves the bombardment of micrometeorites, solar wind ions, electrons, and sunlight.[30] Gases that are released by sputtering can either reimplant into the regolith as a result of the Moon's gravity, or can be lost to space either by solar radiation pressure or by being swept away by the solar wind magnetic field if they are ionised. The elements sodium (Na) and potassium (K) have been detected using earth-based spectroscopic methods, whereas the element radon–222 (222Rn) and polonium-210 (210Po) have been inferred from data obtained from the Lunar Prospector alpha particle spectrometer.[39] Argon–40 (40Ar), helium-4 (4He), oxygen (O2) and/or methane (CH4), nitrogen (N2) and/or carbon monoxide (CO), and carbon dioxide (CO2) were detected by in-situ detectors placed by the Apollo astronauts.[40]
