Significant amounts of it, too? Preposterous!

We must make moon colonies, stat.

Before we know it, we'll be on mars and will accidentally open hell up. :downs:

I'm glad that impact wasn't a complete dud. I'm surprised actually, I thought that any water on the moon would be deeper.

I'm surprised we found that much.

Next step? We bring in Bruce Willis to drill.

...I didn't expect this to work.
And it did.

Good job, NASA!
See? The Mythbusters approach to things ALWAYS works!

That's pretty sick. I would love to have a nice bottle of moonwater right about now.

Bah, it's all the same thing. Ice is just the name for the solid state of H2O. So technically, it's all the same things :eng101:
Not that it really matters tbh

I'm suddenly extremely optimistic for the sort of future predicted in countless sci-fi stories, with human colonies all over the friggin place. Before recently I thought people were being overly optimistic about the habitability of planets and moons, but the fact that we've found significant amounts of water on both the moon and mars tells me making lots of planets and moons habitable may not be as far-fetched as I thought.

Shitty moon joke.

I was actually surprised they found anything though.

That would be slightly funny if it was a few weeks ago when said impact actually happened - and if people already hadn't made that joke several times already. (http://www.modacity.net/forums/showthread.php?t=18869)

nobody has ever said that bro



also the moon was (probably) originally part of the earth anyway so even if they did say that it wouldn't prove much!

You know what I think will happen in the near future...

Countries will desperately be fighting for resources on the moon, thus making a space war... heh...

We wont be doing shit in the near future. For that matter, we wont be seeing a moonbase a long time. Shuttles we launch now can barely support the weight of the crew onboard and all their necessary supplies.

1. We wouldn't be sending it up all at once.
2. We'd use traditional rockets, which are more than capable of getting supplies to the moon. Might even enhance the extra-orbital stages with ion propulsion as opposed to chemical rockets.
3. Shuttle was never intended for hauling huge payloads into orbit and we'd be seeing more passenger-oriented space craft for the purpose of populating the colony anyways, probably commercially-designed.
