These days in mass media it has been announced officially that there is water on the moon. Since man first touched the moon, scientists have considered that the lunar surface is dry. The moon is drier than any desert on Earth. But scientists have discovered that water exists on the moon although in very small quantities. One ton of a top layer of the lunar surface contains nearly 32 ounces of water. Recent investigations which have been carried out with the help of three different spacecrafts have proved scientists’ assumptions.
The preliminary data which has been received with the help of new lunar vehicle developed by NASA LCROSS (Lunar Crater Observation and Sensing Satellite) reveal water presence in a crater. The crater is not very far from the South Pole of the Moon. It is constantly situated in shade; therefore it is impossible to define the presence of frozen water far off there. LCROSS was placed in crater Cabeus in October. After the sling landing, a funnel was created as a result of the vehicle blow. Particles of lunar ground have risen which hid a firm lunar surface billions of years. Scientists consider that the discovery opens a new chapter in moon exploration. If we understand the Moon better, we will expand also the general knowledge of Solar System.
Notice that scientists have argued for years whether there is hydrogen on the moon or not. Nobody could predict its quantity. Recently considerable volumes of hydrogen have been discovered on the moon poles. Taking into consideration that there is frozen water in a subpolar crater, NASA comes to assumption that water can be widely extended on the moon. Scientists think that water in the form of ice has presented on the moon for billions of years. Having studied its chemical compound it would be possible to discover new facts about evolution of the Moon and Solar System. Besides, it is possible to state with confidence that lunar water will be very helpful to astronauts who will constantly stay at moon bases in future.
Thus, scientists have incontestable data which prove water presence on the moon. Concentration and analysis of lunar water is the next task. Today scientists state for sure that there is water in crater Cabeus. Today scientists conduct additional researches connected with the received data.
