An Amazing Discovery
Craters are clearly visible in this NASA photo of the Earth's Moon.
People have always said that the moon is dry and barren – no ice caps, no water. But recently scientists began to think that might not be true. So NASA researchers came up with the idea of crashing a spacecraft into a lunar crater and then analyzing the dust from the impact. The crash took place October 9th, 2009. Now NASA has announced that there is definitely water (in the form of ice) on the moon! Check out the story here: Water on the Moon!
