speculates that the moon object is nothing more than a large boulder created by a meteor impact as there appears to be a impact crater nearby. It also only runs during the lunar day (14 Earth days), then sleeps for a lunar night (another 14 Earth days), which is why it will take so long for it to reach the object.

But large boulders (right) are sometimes excavated by impacts, as seen by the Chang'e-3 mission, which launched 8 years ago on Dec 1. The 'mystery hut,' or 'house,' spotted by Chinas Yutu-2 rover on the far side of the moon turns out to be - drumroll, please - a rock. China has also launched the Chang'e 5 T1 test mission around the moon and the Chang'e 5 moon sample return mission, the report said.So yeah, it's not an obelisk or aliens, but certainly something to check out, and hard to discern much from the image.

A mysterious 'moon hut' spotted by Chinas lunar Yutu 2 rover is actually an adorable rabbit-shaped rock.

The Chang'e 4 lander carrying the Yutu 2 rover touched down in Von Karman Crater on Januand in SeptemberA the solar-powered rover completed the 1,000-days mark on the Moon. The Yutu-2 rover is part of the Chinese Change 4 mission to the Moon. Yutu 2 is expected to spend the next 2-3 lunar days (2-3 Earth months) traversing lunar regolith and avoiding craters to get a closer look, so updates can be expected. Photo by CNSA The Yutu-2 rover is on a roll. Our Space referred to the object as a "mystery hut", but this a placeholder name rather than an accurate description. That distant, somewhat cube-shaped object is the 'mystery house' Chinas Yutu-2 rover is planning to take a closer look at.
