The researchers used data from the Moon Mineralogy Mapper (M3) instrument on the Chandrayaan-1 spacecraft, which orbited the Moon in 2008 and 2009, collecting spectroscopic images of the Moon. This data recorded the infrared light reflected by the Moon, looking for colors on the spectrum consistent with water and hydroxyl.

Recent studies have significantly expanded our understanding of water on the Moon, revealing that it is not just confined to the polar regions but spread across the entire lunar surface. Using data collected by NASA’s Moon Mineralogy Mapper (M3),

Water is essential for human survival on the Moon, making its exploration and extraction a top priority for scientists. A research team led by Prof. WANG Junqiang from the Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering (NIMTE) at the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) has recently proposed a breakthrough method for producing significant

In just over one week’s time, Earth will gain a new celestial companion that will stay for two months in the planet’s gravitational cradle. Meet asteroid 2024 PT5, Earth’s latest mini-moon. “It is pretty cool,

But what is this second moon and, more importantly, will it have any impact on your astrological sign? Here’s the deal, according to an astrologer. Meet the expert: Donna Page, a certified astrologer in Atlanta.

A recently discovered asteroid, named 2024 PT5, will temporarily orbit Earth as a “mini-moon” for nearly two months starting September 29. This rare event offers scientists a chance to study how smaller celestial objects interact with Earth's gravity.

Earth will soon have two moons, but not for long. According to a study published in the journal Research Notes of the American Astronomical Society (AAS), the “moon” in question is a celestial body known as 2024 PT 5 that is believed to be an Arjuna asteroid.
