Water on the Moon?

WASHINGTON: Water particles have been detected on the surface of Moon by three separate missions. The evidence, disclosed in new scientific papers, overturns the long-accepted view that lunar soil is dry and comes just two weeks before a NASA probe is to crash into the surface near Moon’s southern pole to see if water can be detected in the dust and debris released by the impact. The new data was gathered by probes equipped with NASA instruments designed to map Moon’s mineral composition. The so-called “Moon Mineralogy Mapper”, or M3, uses the reflection of sunlight off the Moon’s surface to determine soil composition. Until now, scientists had advanced the theory that there might be ice at the permanently dark bottom of craters at Moon’s poles but that the rest of the Moon was totally dry. afp
