The Hang Nga 3 probe failed to find water on the Moon
According to the exploration of the Hang Nga 3 ship (China), there is no water on the Moon as many people hope.
Launched into orbit in December 2013, Hang Nga 3 was tasked to explore the surface of the Moon. Last year, it found a new basalt rock on the Moon. Also after this discovery, scientists confirmed there was no liquid water on the surface of "Ms. Hang".

"We measured the amount of water on the surface of the Moon and on the surface, but so far only find the lowest amount of water," Sputnik News on August 3 quoted Wen Jianyan - a researcher at the Academy of Science. learn Chinese.
However, the Moon without water is not synonymous with H 2 O does not exist on other moons in the Solar System. The moons Europa, Janymede of Jupiter and Saturn's Enceladus are promising " candidates" .
Mars is also thought to contain groundwater, even in the past there was water on the surface.
Last month, scientists used computer models to determine that theoretically, life could exist on Saturn's Titan moon even when there is no water on the moon.
The study also showed that the chemicals in the moon's atmosphere could be a precursor to organic compounds.
