moon water

Date- 9th July 09 Source- http://www.ciw.edu/multimedia_content

' Using new techniques, scientists have discovered for the first time that tiny beads of volcanic glasses collected from two Apollo missions to the Moon contain water. The researchers found that, contrary to previous thought, water was not entirely vaporized in the violent events that formed the Moon. The new study suggests that the water came from the Moons interior and was delivered to the surface via volcanic eruptions over 3 billion years ago. The finding calls into question some critical aspects of the giant impact theory of the Moons formation and may have implications for the origin of possible water reservoirs at the Moons poles.'
