Friday announced had found water on the moon, that could make the opening of a "new chapter",of the development of a lunar space station.
The discovery was announced by the project scientist Anthony Colaprete a press conference at noon.
"I am here today to tell you that, yes, yes, we have found water. And we didn't found a little, but we found a significant proportion - about a dozen, two buckets per gallon, he said, raising a number of white plastic container.
The conclusion is, according to preliminary data from the Lunar Crater Observation and Satellite, or LCROSS intentionally broken 9th October in the region of permanent shadow Cabeus crater near the south pole of the moon were made.
After they flew the satellite, a rocket through the debris cloud to measure the amount of water and offers a range of other data, "said Colaprete.
The project team examined data from satellite spectrometer, said to provide the best information about the presence of water, Colaprete. A spectrometer for determining the composition of substances by examining the light they emit or absorb.
Although the target of 79 million mission to determine whether it should be water on the moon, discoveries in other areas of progress, Colaprete and other scientists check point said Press, NASA Ames Research Center in Moffett Field, near San Francisco, California.
"The discovery of a new chapter in our understanding of the moon is," said NASA in a written statement shortly after the meeting began.
Michael Wargo, chief scientist of the moon at NASA Headquarters in Washington, said the latest discovery in May show the mysteries of the solar system.
He led several options for water sources, including solar wind, comets, giant molecular clouds or even the moon through a kind of inner activity. The soil can also play a role, "said Wargo.
"If water is formed, deposited or billions of years, these polar cold traps could hold a key to the history and evolution of the solar system, both as a sample of ice cores taken on the ground this old data," NASA said in its statement.
"In addition, water and other compounds represent potential resources that could support future exploration of the moon
