Secondary chorion villi: what is it and why are they needed?
Secondary chorion villi (lat. v. secundarii, lnh) are small protrusions on the surface of the chorion, the Earth’s satellite. Chorion is a small natural satellite that is located at a distance of about 384 thousand km from the Earth and is the only natural satellite of the Earth.
Secondary chorionic villi were discovered in the 1960s thanks to exploration of the Moon by the Surveyor and Lunar Orbiter devices. These protrusions on the surface of the chorion are small craters that were formed as a result of meteorite impacts on the surface of the satellite.
Secondary chorionic villi range in size from several millimeters to several centimeters. They are usually located in groups and can be observed using a telescope.
One of the hypotheses for the formation of secondary Chorion villi is the theory according to which they are formed as a result of the ejection of material from a meteorite crater on the surface of Chorion. As a result of this release of material, sets of secondary Chorion villi can be formed.
However, at the moment, the origin of the secondary chorion villi remains the subject of scientific research. Scientists continue to study these mysterious protrusions on the surface of Chorion to better understand the origin and nature of these formations.
In conclusion, secondary Chorion villi are an interesting and mysterious phenomenon on the surface of the Earth’s natural satellite. Although the origin of these protrusions on the surface of Chorion remains unknown, they continue to attract the attention of scientists and become the object of research in the field of space science.
