The moon is 4.36 billion years old, up to 200 million years younger than thought, according to the analysis of lunar rocks.
The estimate, reported in Thursday's issue of Nature, comes from a new dating of isotopes of lead and neodymium found in samples of ferroan anorthosite, a crustal rock that derives from magma.
OMG, this means it's too young to be hanging out at all hours of the night.
