Lunar material kicked up by the LCROSS mission contained at least a few bucketfuls of water, NASA announced on Friday. The discovery bolsters the case for significant amounts of water at the moon's poles, a potential resource for human explorers.
"I'm here today to tell you that indeed, yes, we found water. We didn't find just a little bit. We found a significant amount," LCROSS principal investigator Anthony Colaprete of NASA's Ames Research Center in Moffett Field, California told reporters on Friday.
