It's Official: Water Found on the Moon

[Airbot]

Since man first touched the moon and brought pieces of it back to Earth, scientists have thought that the lunar surface was bone dry. But new observations from three different spacecraft have put this notion to rest with what has been called "unambiguous evidence" of water across the surface of the moon.

Wow...this is one hell of a discovery...

Human colonization on the moon one day?

its just water traces i guess!!!

its just water traces i guess!!!

if you read the report the exact details won't be known until NASA's press conference tomorrow...

There could be quite a bit of water up there

It'll take more than traces to make colonization feasible.. The main use for any water that they do find will be for the production of Hydrogen as a fuel source .. If they get thirsty, they always have ...

Err...read my above post...

No one but NASA right now knows how much water they have found...

Zid.. this is not the first time that this has been postulated... The main source of the water will be under the surface of the moon, much like oil is on Earth...There is no water on the surface except in minute amount of ice at the polar caps... NASA has known about the presence of water on the moon since 2008 .. This is not anything new, nor is it some closely guarded secret..

Yeah I knew that...it is just that they are apparently building up for a big announcement tomorrow...I assumed that they found a reasonable water supply and they might be plans in the works to somehow make use of it

Like a lunar base...

Call me a little secluded but I would totally live in a lunar home. I find something majestic about the moon and I regularly read up about it

Water on Mars

 

[Tews]

I wouldn't hold out on a moon colony for decades at the earliest... NASA is retiring the Space Shuttle program later on this year with no immediate plans to replace the aging craft.. Once its retired, the only way we will have to the ISS much less the moon, will be to hitch a ride with the Russians...

I read about that too a bit back. That led to a very interesting conversation with Mom...

...anyhow I hope they get the new system up and ready to go ASAP (years to NASA) so Space Exploration can continue

Oh dear...that came from left field:roflmao:

I read or heard that there was something on the moon that proved someone/something was already there. some type of structure.

 

[Tews]

This is a controversial subject that is championed by Richard C Hoagland who gained fame with his Face on Mars theory. A frequent and popular guest on Coast to Coast AM, Hoagland believes that there are structures on the moon, that are remnants of a prior civilization.... Decide for yourself..

that's where I must have heard it.
Something like it was not photographed/videoed due to aliens say not to talk about it

 

[Tews]

Actually, Hoagland claims that there is photographic evidence, but having seen these photographs, I really have to stretch my imagination to see a structure...BTW I am a big fan of Coast, and listen to it nightly ... with a properly fitted tinfoil hat!!
