Ice on the Moon more common than previously thought based on India’s Chandrayaan-3 lander data
- Scientists state that ice may be more common on the Moon's polar regions than previously thought, based on data from India's Chandrayaan-3 lander.
- The Chandrayaan-3 lander helped researchers measure lunar surface temperatures, indicating possible ice accumulation in polar regions.
- The findings suggest that sloped areas facing away from the Sun might be cool enough to gather ice near the surface.
- Chandrayaan-3's Vikram lander provided new temperature data in 2023, crucial for future exploration plans.
