Epic Now That's Some Quality H2O Win

NASA scientists are saying that the data from last month's LCROSS mission has revealed significant water content beneath the lunar surface.
NASA has discovered water on the moon, based on data from the Lunar Crater Observation and Sensing Satellite, or LCROSS, that plunged into the moon last month, the principal investigator for LCROSS said Friday.

Anthony Colaprete said at the start of his comments to reporters, "Indeed, yes, we found water."

"The discovery opens a new chapter in our understanding of the moon," NASA said in a written statement.
EPIC WIN, and it came as a result of smashing a big heavy object into the moon and then flying through the debris cloud.

Creative destruction, indeed.
