This week’s story is from CNN.com and covers NASA’s announcement that they have discovered water on the moon! Check it out here:
CNN.com – NASA finds ‘significant’ water on moon
NASA said Friday it had discovered water on the moon, opening "a new chapter" that could allow for the development of a lunar space station.
The discovery was announced by project scientist Anthony Colaprete at a midday news conference.
"I’m here today to tell you that indeed, yes, we found water. And we didn’t find just a little bit; we found a significant amount" — about a dozen, two-gallon bucketfuls, he said, holding up several white plastic containers.
My commentary is just this: COOOL! And I am ready to be signed up to be the Internet Service Provider (ISP) to the moon! There are certainly huge technological hurdles, but I am up to it. Sign me up!
