Shocking findings
In February 2020, a groundbreaking study by researchers from Vrije Universiteit Brussel and Utrecht University was published in the American Geophysical Union (AGU) journal. This study unveiled astonishing insights about Earth and potentially the Moon, achieved through the analysis of an extinct clam relative.
The findings, derived from the study of this ancient mollusk, opened up new avenues for understanding Earth’s geological history and lunar influences, showcasing the importance of paleontological research in uncovering planetary secrets.
