India finds evidence of water on the moon

Chandrayaan-1, India's first lunar mission, has found evidence of large quantities of water on its surface, The Times newspaper reported on Thursday.
Data from the spacecraft also suggests water is still being formed on the moon, the British newspaper said.
"It's very satisfying," the newspaper quoted Mylswamy Annadurai, the mission's project director at the Indian Space Research Organisation in Bangalore, as saying.
The newspaper said the breakthrough would be announced by the U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration on Thursday.
NASA's website says it will hold a media briefing at 1440 EDT on Sept. 24 to "reveal new scientific findings about the moon" from data collected during national and international space missions.

Yeah man, WTF? A satellite detected it in 2009? So seriously, we've had satellites flying way out into space for decades and we only just got this data about our very close moon -- WITHOUT even landing on it??! I also loved the way the papers wrote it like "..found by India. Oh, and USA and Europe orbitors too."
