The Moon isn’t just dust and craters — it may be a cosmic treasure chest. 🌕 Scientists estimate that hidden inside lunar craters lies over $1 trillion worth of platinum and other precious metals. Mining these riches could be far easier than hauling them from distant asteroids, making the Moon a prime target for the next great gold rush. But with nations and private companies eyeing lunar resources, one question looms: will this be humanity’s biggest opportunity… or the spark of a future space race?Credit:
