Moon's Icy Secrets Unleash Lunar Water Harvesting Frenzy

NASA scientists have discovered evidence of hydrogen molecules within moon rocks, indicating the presence of lunar water. This discovery opens up the possibility of harvesting water on the moon for use as rocket propellant and life support, potentially turning the moon into a gas station for deep-space travel. The existence of lunar water could significantly reduce the cost and supply constraints of manned missions to the moon and even pave the way for future missions to Mars. This discovery is a significant step in deep-space travel and suggests the presence of a vast network of ice beneath the moon's surface.
