Water on the Moon is about the same as Earth

The water at the surface of the Moon is also very similar on Earth, according to the analysis of rock masses obtained by Apollo on the Moon in 1972.

Scientists at Case Western Reserve University (USA) analyzed rock samples on the Moon sent by Apollo 17 to Earth in 1972. Results showed that water was below the surface of The moon may be 100 times more than the surface water of the planet.

The team also said that the Moon's surface water is equivalent to the amount of underground water on our planet. If this is true, this will be another proof that the Moon is formed from a portion of Earth's material fired into the universe.

The Daily Mail quoted Professor James van Orman, who led the study, said: ' The rocks collected on the Moon have shown that a large amount of water exists under the surface of this planet. The amount of water seems to be similar to the amount of groundwater on our planet . '

In recent years, some space probes have also found water freezing in large craters at the poles of the Moon. Scientists have identified that water was brought there due to the effects of supernovae. However, the latest study suggests that part of the Moon's surface water is erupted by volcanoes.
