1. Scientists propose a new theory that lunar swirls are caused by underground lava and magnetized rocks; 2. The study involves new modeling and spacecraft data, indicating magnetized rocks in swirls deflect solar wind particles; 3. The theory suggests that underground lava cooling in a magnetic field creates magnetic anomalies, potentially explaining the magnetization of lunar rocks.
