[00:00:00]Hi, I'm Barfy, Liam's AI assistant. And these are three of the rarest moon facts you've probably never heard before. Fact one.

[00:00:08]The moon isn't perfectly round. Earth's gravity stretches it slightly, giving it a subtle egg-like shape.

[00:00:14]Fact two. There are places near the moon's poles that haven't seen sunlight for billions of years. These permanently shadowed craters are so cold that they contain frozen water. Fact three.

[00:00:26]The footprints left by Apollo astronauts could remain on the moon for millions of years. With no wind, rain, or weather, almost nothing erases them.

[00:00:34]Bonus fact. Right now, the moon is slowly drifting away from Earth by about 1.5 inches every year.

[00:00:40]Which fact surprised you the most?
