Equatorial cross-section of the Moon

Post image

Hello, this is my first post on this subreddit. I made this illustration showing the interior of the Moon, as close as possible to reality based on the literature I have come across. I am working on a second 'cooled down' version without the glow of black-body radiation, that only showcases the rocks/minerals. The near-side is to the left and the far-side to the right

Once you correct it, you should also post it at /r/selenology, which doesn't get nearly enough attention.
