Last year, NASA's LCROSS mission discovered that the moon contains water. The Mini-SAR instrument has since found three forms of water on the lunar surface: pure water, dirty water, and a thin layer coating much of the moon. It has detected over 600 million tons of ice concentrated in lunar craters, with depths of at least 6.6 feet in many craters. Discoveries about the presence and distribution of lunar water continue to be made, with much of the current understanding developed within just the past year.

A science presentation Completed on the 9th of April, 2010 The moon is a satellite of the Earth, the only one in fact. It’s diameter is approximately ! Last year, 2159 miles (the Earth is just the NASA space ship under 8000 m. at the equator). LCROSS discovered Many that the moon has fables have been told, such as that water on it! Recently, the moon is the Mini-SAR has made of cheese, or there is a man discovered that there living inside of it. Neither of these are three types of are true. The water; pure water, surface of the moon is dirty water and a composed of oxygen, silicon, thin layer that covers magnesium, the moon. iron, calcium, and aluminum.
Did you know...
The Mini-SAR has you can only see found more than one side of the 600 million tons of lunar ice so far! Water moon at all times is found in the craters from the Earth! on the moon, with at least 6.6 feet of ice in more than forty craters. All of the information found about the water on the moon has been discovered in the last year, some even in the last month. This means that the information is ever changing, and being updated.
