New research shows water present across the moon's surface
(University of Tennessee at Knoxville) When Apollo astronauts returned from the moon 40 years ago, a chief question was whether there was water to be found in the lunar rocks and soils. Most of the rock boxes containing lunar samples had leaked, leading scientists to assume that the trace amounts of water they found came from Earth air that had entered the containers. Forty years later, a team of scientists has found evidence that the old assumption may be wrong.

Key process for space outpost proved on 'vomit comet' ride
(Case Western Reserve University) During flights simulating the moon's low gravity, Case Western Reserve University researchers find that sifters can separate soil particles and produce the best feedstock for an oxygen generator. NASA and Case Western Reserve scientists are designing and testing components of the generator, which would provide oxygen needed for a lunar or Martian outpost.
