I WONDER - What Is Special About The Moon Charon?

The video explores the possibility of an ocean on the moon, influenced by Pluto's gravitational pull. Initially, this force may have warmed the moon enough to create an ocean. However, as the gravitational force has decreased, astronomers now believe the ocean could be frozen.

What is the surprising feature that the moon might possess despite its distance from the sun?

• A desert

• An ocean

• A mountain range

• A forest

What celestial body's gravitational pull is believed to have influenced the moon's ocean formation?

• Mars

• Venus

• Pluto

• Jupiter

How did Pluto's gravitational pull affect the moon?

• It caused volcanic eruptions

• It warmed the moon enough to form an ocean

• It created a magnetic field

• It cooled the moon down

What do astronomers currently believe about the state of the moon's ocean?

• It is frozen

• It is still liquid

• It has evaporated

• It has turned into a gas

Why might the ocean on the moon be frozen now?

• The moon's atmosphere changed

• The moon moved closer to the sun

• The gravitational force is less

• The sun's heat has increased
