Water found on the Moon, BYOB for the pool party

That was quick. NASA just released some data last week recorded by the LRO that indicated water might be present and suddenly an Indian probe actually found some. India’s first Moon probe , Chandrayaan-1, is equipped with sensors to detect the electromagnetic signature of water. Furthermore, these sensors cannot penetrate very deep and the data indicates that the water is actually on ore near the Moon’s surface. How exciting. NASA is expected to release more data later today at a press conference so be sure to check back for more info.
