Solid evidence of the presence of ice on the moon has been found

Scientists have said they have found definitive evidence of ice on the Moon.
This ice is present at both the South and North Poles and is believed to be very ancient.
The evidence was collected with the help of instruments aboard India's Chandrayaan-1 spacecraft, which explored the Moon between 2008 and 2009.
Details of this research have been published in the scientific journal PNAS.
Accordingly, the ice on the south pole of the moon is mostly inside the craters, while the ice on the north pole is very porous and scattered over a large area.
The primary purpose of the M3 instrument on the Chandrayaan-R was to examine minerals on the Moon. The data obtained from this revealed that there is ice on the surface of the moon.
M3 not only measured the light reflected from the ice, but also directly measured the absorption of infrared light by ice molecules.
This means that the device could also distinguish between frozen water (ice) and liquid water.
The temperature on the moon's surface reaches 100 degrees Celsius during the day. Obviously, it is impossible for snow to remain in such heat.
But since the moon is tilted on its axis by 1.54 degrees, there are places where the sun never shines.
Moon's south pole
Scientists have calculated that inside the craters of the moon, where there is always a shadow, the temperature does not go above minus 157 degrees. These are places where ice can stay solid for long periods of time.
Earlier there were reports of ice on the south pole of the moon, but some scientists believed that it might not be ice but the white dust of the moon that was reflecting the light.
The presence of water on the moon means that humans can use it in the future.
This ice can not only be converted into potable water, but hydrogen can also be obtained from it to make rocket fuel.
In recent years, evidence of ice has also been found in other solar system objects, including the planet Mercury and the dwarf planet series.
