Chinese researchers used Earth-based radar and the world’s largest radio telescope to estimate ice content in lunar soil.
A giant impact crater on the moon may contain primordial pieces of the lunar mantle and remnants of an ancient magma ocean, ...
FOX 13 Meteorologist Dave Osterberg explains how solar wind could be behind the water molecules that have developed on the ...
Water on the Moon has long captured the attention of scientists, not just for its significance in future lunar exploration ...
Credit: NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center Future moon astronauts may find water more accessible than previously thought, according to a new experiment that suggests the sun is replenishing the sought ...
a component of water — on the surface of the moon through multiple space missions. The source of this water has long been a mystery, though some theories suggest volcanism, outgassing from ...
According to NASA, the water that's been detected on the moon follows an interesting pattern — it changes on a daily cycle. Areas warmed by the sun release water as vapor, while colder regions ...
Scientists confirm the Sun's charged particles can create water on the Moon. Learn how solar wind interacts with lunar soil.
The Moon seems to be keeping things uneven when it comes to water. A recent study of samples scooped up from the far side and brought back to Earth shows that the side facing away from us is ...
NASA wants to understand if this process can be used for water harvesting on the Moon. Future missions may explore this more, and it could help us survive and thrive in space. Spacecraft show moon ...
By recreating this solar-induced chemistry with real Moon dust, NASA has taken a major step toward understanding and possibly harnessing space-based water formation.
This discovery reinforces the theory that solar wind is a primary source of water on the Moon, potentially impacting future lunar missions like Artemis. Since the Apollo missions in the 1960s ...
