I’m having a hard time finding much info on this, but this article:
http://www.cnn.com/2009/SPORT/11/04/littering.golf.balls/
has a throw-away line about the golf balls left on the moon in the early 1970’s would be long gone because they would “dissolve in the extreme temperatures.”
Really? That just doesn’t sound right to me. Would golf balls dissolve on the moon? At all? Within 40 years?
