The MOON is the closest cosmic object to the Earth, the interaction between them having great influences on our planet, and scientists are still looking for information about its formation and existence in the solar system. Some of this information will come thanks to the following missions planned to be carried out on the moon in the coming years, and NASA has made a very important announcement regarding one of those that will take place in the next period.
The MOON has already chosen the place where those from NASA are going to send a new probe to its surface, a region in its southern area being chosen for a robot that is going to drill to collect soil samples. NASA chose the Shackleton crater for the robot that will search for the ice under the surface of the moon, and this because it could be essential for the survival of the people who will arrive there in an attempt to discover more secrets.
MOON: IMPORTANT Announcement Concerning the Future of All Humanity
The MOON would have ice about 1 meter below its surface in the region chosen by NASA for drilling, so we should talk about a mission that would quickly reveal what is happening there. NASA has been looking for an area on the moon where sunlight is not strong enough to melt even the ice at such a shallow depth, so sending the robot there is mainly based on the belief that that area found would have ice underneath it .
"Finding a landing location where we could discover ice 1 meter below the surface was a challenge. Although there is plenty of sunlight to power the payloads, the surface becomes too warm to support ice within reach of the PRIME-1 drill. We had to find a place that would receive enough sunlight to meet the mission requirements, while also being a safe place to land with good communications with Earth."
The MOON will not only have analyzed the clot that could be under its surface, but also the possible gases that will be discovered there, the robot having an analysis tool including for these. NASA wants to find out more data from the moon with this robot, its mission being a complex one, but considering that in 2024 NASA would like to send people to the Earth's natural satellite again, it is good to find out as much as possible in advance existing secrets.
The MOON remains in everyone's attention until then, and this is because there are other missions that are in the process of unfolding, so there will be enough to learn from its surface.
