Water dicovered on Moon by Chandrayaan

It could be one of the biggest finds in the history of space research – water on the moon. And proof of this may have come from India’s own Chandrayaan satellite before it was aborted.

The water found as a thin, invisible film, which has been found on moon rocks.

The credit for this much-awaited discovery could go to NASA’s Moon Mineralogy Mapper (M3) on board the Chandrayaan, which has mapped 97 per cent of the lunar surface change.

ISRO is analysing this data and will be able to make an announcement soon.
