that's good news if we ever go back.

it still baffles me why obama wants to go to an asteroid and phobos rather than the moon.

anyplace we go we will have to bring or build the same basic stuff so why not practice close to home.

i guess someone will.

Not new news, but still a heck of a lot of water.

Chandrayaan-I detects ice deposits on moon - March 02, 2010 08:16 IST

Scientists have detected more than 40 ice-filled craters in the moon's North Pole using data from a NASA radar that flew aboard India's Chandrayaan-I. 

NASA's Mini-SAR instrument, lightweight, synthetic aperture radar, found more than 40 small craters with water ice. The craters range in size from 2 to 15 km in diameter.

The finding would give future missions a new target to further explore and exploit, a NASA statement said, adding it is estimated that there could be at least 600 million metric tons of water ice in the craters.
