Chinese scientists found
signs of water in samples from a lava plain on the moon, bringing them closer to understanding its origin there
Scientists said they analyzed
remnants of solidified lava known as the "Ocean of Storms" and found evidence of water in the form of hydroxyl
Hydroxyl, comprising a
single hydrogen atom and an oxygen atom versus two hydrogen to one oxygen in a water molecule
Most of the water on the moon
was the result of chemical processes triggered by bombardment of charged particles from the sun on moon surface
The Chinese samples
suggest that little or none of the hydroxyl in them was from "extraneous sources", they said..
China is expected
to launch more uncrewed lunar missions in coming years, with the study of water one of the objectives.
