Chinese rover has spotted a mystery cube-shaped object on the moon.

Yutu-2, the Chinese rover that landed on the far side of the Moon in 2019, has spotted a cube-shaped object while traversing the Von Kármán crater. An image of the object was captured from 260 feet away, too far for astronomers to figure out what it is. Yutu-2 will spend the next two to three months traveling closer to it to get a better view. Whilst the internet has joked that it could be anything from a McDonalds to an intergalactic petrol station, it is most likely a boulder dug up by a meteor impact.
