The projectiles that created the farthest reach of the longer Vallis Planck had a slightly higher velocity of around 1.23 to 1.28 km per second. (This is about half of the lunar escape velocity, ...

And unlike the Grand Canyon, carved over millions of years by the flow of the Colorado River, Vallis Schrödinger and Vallis Planck formed in just minutes after a 15-mile-wide meteor struck the ...

It didn’t take long for the moon to get its grand canyons. Vallis Schrödinger and Vallis Planck are two long channels near the lunar south pole. The canyons, each more than 160 miles long and ...

Scientists analyzed the lunar canyons, named Vallis Schrödinger and Vallis Planck, to find that these huge valleys measure ...

The Max Planck Society, a German state-backed network of research centres, received 81 applications from the U.S. this spring in its latest call for promising early-career women scientists looking ...

Two giant lunar valleys, Vallis Schrödinger and Vallis Planck, formed in less than 10 minutes, researchers say. Rocky debris ejected by an asteroid or comet impact 3.81 billion years ago ...

The two canyons, called Vallis Schrödinger and Vallis Planck, are located on the far side of the moon, so they can only be seen from orbit — not from Earth. Each canyon is over 165 miles long ...

The Planck scale sets the universe’s minimum limit, beyond which the laws of physics break. In the late 1890s, physicist Max Planck proposed a set of units to simplify the expression of physics laws.

The Schrödinger impact crater sits near to the Moon’s south pole. Sprouting off it are two canyons — called Vallis Schrödinger and Vallis Planck — each comparable in size to the Grand ...

Scientists say Vallis Schrödinger and Vallis Planck—dramatic trenches near the lunar south pole—were carved in a blast that unleashed 130 times the amount of energy in Earth's global nuclear ...
