NASA Research Suggests Lots of Water on Moon
NASA-funded scientists estimate from recent research that the volume of water molecules locked inside minerals in the moon’s interior could exceed the amount of water in the Great Lakes here on Earth.
Scientists at the Carnegie Institution’s Geophysical Laboratory in Washington, along with other scientists across US , determined that the water was likely present very early in the moon’s formation history as hot magma started to cool and crystallize. This finding means water is native to the moon.
