NASA said Friday (today) it had discovered water on the moon, opening "a new chapter" that could allow for the development of a lunar space station. The discovery was announced by project scientist Anthony Colaprete at a midday news conference. "The discovery opens a new chapter in our understanding of the moon," the space agency said in a written statement shortly after the briefing began. http://www.cnn.com/2009/TECH/space/11/13/water.moon.nasa/index.html Yay!

There's water on the moon -- and not "just a little bit," NASA scientists announce. When the space agency crashed a probe into the moon's south pole last month, it created a debris plume that contained "a significant amount" of water ice, they say. Earlier NASA missions had found just trace amounts of water. http://www.wikio.co.uk/science/astronomy_and_space/nasa So, prior only "trace" amounts of water had been found; today it was announced that "significant" water was found.
