Yes water, water is everywhere on Moon and Mars.......Ice deposits at least 6 feet can be found in some small craters on the Moon it was reported by researchers on 12 th April 2010 as the studies showed evidence of water on Moon and Mars .
According to one of the recent studies ice has melted and re-frozen on Mars.
India's spacecraft Chandrayaan has found evidence of thick ice being deposited on some permanently shaded craters on the Moon. Researchers say that Moon has been constantly bombarded with water-bearing objects such as comets and meteorites and implanted with solar wind hydrogen over geological time and some of this material must have made its way into these cold, dark areas.
One of the study showed that 6-feet wide gully on Mars had become nearly 400 feet longer over 2 years and it can be best explain the melting of small amounts of water ice.
Photographs also show dark patches in gully as well as in some smaller new channels.
In September last year several teams reported clear evidence of water likely frozen on desert surfaces of both Moon and Mars and researchers have also seen snow in Mars.
- Does Moon Water Comes In Three Flavours ?
There has been surprise discovery of water in Moon . Now the scientists are saying that the water present in Moon's surface comes in three flavours ! According to the findings of Chandrayaan -1 , NASA's Mini-SAR team has found 40 craters which...
- A Giant Leap In Moon Mission
Chandrayaan-1 has achieved a new milestone as it discovered 600 million metric tons ice on the Moon's North Pole. The announcement was made at the 41st Lunar and Planetary Science Congress , organised by Houston- based Lunar and Planetary Institute....
- Water Molecules On Lunar Surface
NASA scientists have discovered water molecules in the polar regions of the moon. Water molecules are greater than predicted , but still relatively small. Hydroxyl, a molecule consisting of one oxygen atom and one hydrogen atom, also was found in the...
- Victoria Provides Opportunity To View Mars' Geological History
Opportunity?s two-year stay in Mars? Victoria Crater is now bearing fruit, with the publication of the first major analysis of what the Mars Exploration Rover found. Details describe a crater carved by wind and water erosion, and a strong indication...
- Moon Rocks Contain Water
The general agreement about the Moon had been before that it was completely dry. No traces of water at all. And detailed research of the Moon rocks brought back by the Apollo astronauts seemed to completely confirm this agreement for more than 30 years....
