Firefly's Blue Ghost witnessed Earth blocking out the Sun from its point of view on the Moon, while we experienced a lunar eclipse on Earth.

The lander, called Athena, is a Nova-C class lunar lander and carries a drill and mass spectrometer capable of boring into the moon's soil to search for highly valued water ice. Such ice holds ...

Get Instant Summarized Text (Gist) Ice may exist just below the Moon's surface in more areas of the lunar polar regions than previously believed, due to localized temperature variations. Data from ...

The latest attempt to land on the Moon went at least partially awry on 6 March, when an ice-seeking spacecraft named Athena apparently landed off-kilter near the lunar south pole. The precise ...

The "diamond ring" phenomenon can also be viewed from Earth during solar eclipses. This occurs as bright points of light appear when sunlight pokes through valleys and mountain ridges on the moon ...

It might be easier for us to explore and live on the Moon than we previously thought, scientists say. Ice may be present just below the lunar surface in more parts of the Moon’s polar regions ...

Ice could be present at more locations right beneath the Moon's surface at the poles than previously thought, a study of data collected by the Chandrayaan-3 mission has suggested. Large ...

Ice may be present a few centimetres below the Moon’s surface in more areas of the lunar polar regions than was previously thought due to large, yet highly localised, variations in surface ...

Ice may lie an inch or so below the Moon’s surface in many more regions than previously thought — which has major implications for longer-term lunar exploration or even habitation. The measurements ...

Chandrayaan-3's Chandra's Surface Thermophysical Experiment (ChaSTE) achieved unprecedented in-situ temperature measurements at the Moon's south ... and potential water-ice deposits, which are ...

In a new study, researchers from the Physical Research Laboratory (PRL) in Ahmedabad have found that the area of the moon where water ice can be easily accessed is greater than expected.
