Microbes might get freeze-dried on the moon’s south pole

The upcoming Artemis IV mission, marking humanity’s return to the lunar surface after half a century, presents a unique scientific opportunity.

This raises crucial questions about potential biological contamination and the resilience of life beyond Earth.
