LCROSS Data Confirms Water on the Moon
The argument that the moon is a dry, desolate place no longer holds water. Secrets the moon has been holding, for perhaps billions of years, are now being revealed to the delight of scientists and space enthusiasts alike. The ejecta plume from the LCROSS impact contained at least 100 kilograms of water. But the same data that conclusively identifies water also indicates that the plume contained a surprisingly complex cocktail of other elements and compounds that the team is now struggling to identify. What other secrets will the moon reveal? The analysis continues.

Someone tell the World Weekly News! Obviously an alien artifact.<br><br>Greg N
Whenever you look at an surface with a lot of jumbled shapes mingling together, yor eyes will assemble them into something your brain recognizes: like two headed pirates on stucco, or a fat guy with a goat head on a marble food counter. How about those old lady potato chip collections with Kennedy, Lincoln, Jesus profiles. I once had a cheap Chinese eyepiece that had a greasy smudge on the eyelens that looked like a knight swinging a sword at an ocean wave. Yep - astronomers' eyes get weirded out awfully easily.<br><br>
