The Moon is inside Earth’s atmosphere, specifically within the geocorona, a tenuous cloud of hydrogen atoms that extends up to 390,000 miles (630,000 kilometers) into space. This discovery was made based on observations from the ESA/NASA Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO), showing that Earth’s atmosphere reaches almost twice the distance to the Moon. The geocorona around Earth is denser on the day side due to solar radiation, with 70 hydrogen atoms per cubic centimeter at an altitude of 37,000 miles (60,000 km) and only about 0.2 atoms per cubic centimeter at the Moon’s distance. Despite this extension of Earth’s atmosphere, the particles in the geocorona do not pose a significant threat to space travelers on future missions orbiting the Moon.
