The data from Chandrayaan-1 confirmed the ice presence on the moon: NASA
Scientists have confirmed the presence of Chandrayaan-1 spacecraft data in the dark and cold spaces of the polar regions of the Moon on the frozen pattern of water. American Space Agency NASA has informed about this.
The possibility of life in the moon got stronger
India launched this spacecraft ten years ago. With sufficient availability of ice on the surface, there is a sign that there is a possibility of water availability for further operations or even on the moon. The study, published in the journal PNAS, states that the snow is scattered around here. Most of the snow on the south pole is lunar craters. The snow of the North Pole is widespread but more scattered.
Scientists have used data from NASA's Moon Mineralogy Mapper (M3) to show that water ice is present on the surface of the Moon. With the Chandrayaan-1 spacecraft sent to the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) in 2008, M3 was sent. These water ice have been found at such a place, where the sun's light never gets due to the slight curve of the rotating axis of the Moon.
Chandrayaan-1 was launched ten years ago
Chandrayaan-1 spacecraft was launched under India's first lunar mission. But due to technical difficulties, it stopped sending radio signals on August 28, 2009. After this, ISRO had announced the end of this mission. It was a two-year walk. Although it had completed 95 percent of the mission in its journey of one year. In 2016, NASA tried to get the Chandrayaan to its orbit again from the ground-based radar system. After the observation in the next three months, the right place was set to be installed in the classroom.
The moon was below the surface in the water
Before giving information about the snow on the moon, scientists had announced under Chandrayaan information that Chandrayaan 1 had discovered evidence of the presence of water on the moon's surface. NASA's instrument 'Moon Minrologie Mapper (M3)', sent with Chandrayaan 1, detected the Wavelength of reflected light, which indicates the chemical connection between hydrogen and oxygen in the material on the thin layer of the upper soil. By analyzing this description, M-3 confirmed the existence of water on the Moon. This discovery had put a stop to the four decades of discontent that the moon had water or not. Scientists had earlier claimed that the water was in existence about 40 years ago on the Moon.
