Lunar IceCube Passes Critical Testing at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center

Quote

The Lunar IceCube CubeSat successfully passed essential environmental testing at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland. The spacecraft, pictured above, will fly aboard the upcoming Artemis I mission to the Moon as a secondary payload to investigate the amount and distribution of water ice on the Moon.

We got to find water on the Moon and Mars to live there and not carried water there to live

if water is found on the Moon or Mars we don't have to carried it.but we have to find it where the sources are before we leave   

Water detected on the moon, buried ice on Mars. Finding water on the moon has long been one of the holy grails of modern lunar exploration because solar power and ice deposits, assuming they are close enough to the surface, could provide a source of water, air, and rocket fuel for future moon explorers or colonists

Yeah, the presence of water is confirmed in both places.  I haven't read anything about how exploitable it will be but that's bound to be easier than trying to take it over that distance

Cool!

I repeat, water HAS been detected on the Moon and Mars. This is what a quick google search will bring you. Most of these stories have been discussed on UM.
