Christopher My grandmother has been telling people since the 60's that there was water on the moon, and nobody believed her. When I told her about the successful find on Friday, she was ecstatic, and began calling up anybody who doubted her... well those who are still alive. pahaha

Brewster Rockit is an unlikely captain. He’s woefully ill-prepared to lead ... and that’s part of his charm. Orbiting the stars in the space station R.U. Sirius, Brewster and his crew of misfits encounter a constantly challenging set of interplanetary anomalies. ...

Simon Peter Debbarma I read about Lcross's new find-water on the moon. The newspaper had a punchline-'Water in Moon for a bath'. It has filled my heart with joy. Although the water is in ice-crystals.......it is a gr8 find. Can u imagine 80 liters of water on the moon....awesome find. Keep up the gd work.



Best of Luck!
