Lunar dust can be a pain - but its also literally the ground we will have to traverse if we are ever to have a permanent human settlement on the Moon. In that specific use case, its clingy, jagged, staticky properties can actually be an advantage, according to a new paper, recently published in Research from researchers at Beihang University, who analyzed the mechanical properties of samples returned by Change 6 mission to the far side of the Moon.
