What are moonquakes?

Moonquakes are earthquakes that occur on the Moon. Although moonquakes are far less numerous and weaker than earthquakes, certain forms can register up to 5.5 on the Richter scale, which would cause structural damage if they happened on Earth. The vibration from shallow moonquakes frequently lasts longer than 10 minutes. Earthquakes, on the other hand, last only one or two minutes.
