Okay don't everybody speak at once
00:00:05.129 --> 00:00:07.297
The moon's orbit has shifted
00:00:08.173 --> 00:00:09.258
I'm s orry 9
00:00:09.425 --> 00:00:12.999
its orbital radius is decreasing
00:00:12.761 --> 00:00:15.305
Well that's not possible We thought the same
00:00:15.389 --> 00:00:17.683
so we ran the numbers and triple checked our data
00:00:17.808 --> 00:00:21.437
So the moon's been orbiting around the earth for billions of years
00:00:21.052 --> 00:00:23.048
and now you're telling me it's changed its course
00:00:25.441 --> 00:00:26.734
This isn't kindergarten speak
00:00:26.817 --> 00:00:29.445
Right uh yes So on its last orbit
00:00:29.528 --> 00:00:32.781
our lunar reconnaissance probe picked up something strange
00:00:33.365 --> 00:00:35.492
Fowler What is that We don't know
00:00:35.659 --> 00:00:39.872
We have photometric measurements of gaseous spectra being emitted from inside
00:00:42.374 --> 00:00:43.375
Where is this
00:00:43.959 --> 00:00:45.419
