NASA discovered a significant amount water on the Moon! It is in the form of ice and vapor. This is exciting because "having a local resource like water would make things a bit easier. Hydrogen can be derived from water for use as a rocket fuel -- and the ice plume kicked up by last month's probe would also be of the drinkable variant. If you could clean it, it would be drinkable water," said NASA's Anthony Colaprete.
