India’s first lunar mission found evidence of water on the moon, a spokesman for the Indian Space Research Organization said in a phone interview from the southern city of Bangalore today.

Close on the heels of finding water molecules on the moon, new results from India's aborted moon mission, Chandrayaan, show that the lunar surface is a strong source of hydrogen atoms.

In the hope of finding evidence of water ice deposits buried in one of the permanently shadowed craters on the moon, NASA's LCROSS satellite is due to hit its South Pole on Friday morning, according to the Associated Press.

With its "bombing" of the moon early tomorrow, NASA's LCROSS mission may beat a telltale signature of water out of a shadowy crater—and all you may need to see it is a good backyard telescope.

India marked its presence on Moon on Friday night to be only the fourth nation to scale this historic milestone after a Moon Impact Probe with the national tri-colour painted successfully landed on the lunar surface after being detached from unmanned spacecraft Chandrayaan-1.

After the successful Chandrayaan-I moon mission, Indian Space Research Organisation is now getting ready for a twin launch - a "breakthrough" Radar Imaging Satellite (RISAT) and ANUSAT.Bangalore-headquartered ISRO is targeting a March last week date for launching them on board the indigenously built Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle from the Sriharikota spaceport.

India’s maiden Rs 400 crore moon mission Chandrayaan-1 was terminated on Sunday, about one year before the odyssey’s expected end, after ISRO failed to restore the snapped communication link with the unmanned spacecraft.

Chandrayaan-1 has become the only space craft orbiting the moon after the mission by Japan ended on Wednesday night.Click on the link to read in detail.
