Let’s have a look at the information about the shocking discovery. And the findings or theories related to it. For sure it’s going to be a curtain-raiser on many things regarding our planet.
NASA: amazing new facts and findings of Moon
Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA): NASA, confirmed the news that there is the presence of water on the radiant surface of the Moon. The findings also shed light on the fact that water maybe not limited to cold, shadowed places and is probably distributed across the lunar surface.
Scientists of NASA are of the view that if it turns out to be legit then the survival strategies can be created for humans and other living things on the lunar surface of the moon.

NASA’s surprising new revelation discovered (H2O) molecules in one of the biggest hollows visible from Earth which are known as “Clavius Craters”, these are located on the southern hemisphere of the moon.
Ever since the news came out NASA is supporting humans living there and trying to get strong facts out of it to keep adding on to their already existing findings.
NASA’s previous findings strengthening the discovery about moon
As per the researches conducted previously, the presence of water in the darker region of the moon has been detected. The indication of water on the moon’s surface boosted the research and now NASA’s scientists have detected the molecule in sunlit regions of the moon.
According to the latest issue of Nature Astronomy, some of the hydrogen was discovered on the surface of the moon, but the assumptions remained in their place because NASA was at a loss to differentiate between water and its relative chemical hydroxy! Findings from the other previous searches reveal in parts of 100 to 412 per minute. According to the magazine, it’s roughly equal to a 12-ounce water bottle confined in a cubic meter made up of soil on the moon’s surface.

Paul Hertz the Astrophysics Incharge and Director at NASA Headquarters gave a statement about this matter, it said: “We had indications that H2O, the familiar water we know might be present on the sunlit side of the Moon.”
He went on to say, “Now we know it is there. This discovery challenges our understanding of the lunar surface and raises intriguing questions about resources relevant for deep space exploration.”
What’s new for NASA to discover?
So, it’s crystal clear that there was water ice hidden on the moon’s surface. Now, NASA is all set up to unveil the other facts. Previously, it was discovered that the water under the Sahara Desert is a hundred times more than detected in the lunar soil. However, the new search raised new question\s about the persistence of water on an airless and harsh lunar surface. Furthermore, the secret behind the creation of water is still hidden.
Existence of ice on the Moon confirmed – @dwnews
22 AUG 2018. NASA's moon research instrument M3 has revealed three chemical signatures that prove the existence of water.

Water is indeed important for both scientific purpose and mankind.
If it’s used efficiently on the moon’s surface than it’ll enable new scientific discoveries.
Let’s see what NASA and SOFIA reveal further about it. SOFIA is a joint project of NASA and German aerospace centre about further research on the moon.
Anyhow, NASA never fails to amaze and will continue doing so.
