Scientists say they have definitive evidence that ice exists on the surface of Earth's moon.
The ice deposits have been found at both the north and south poles, and are likely to be ancient in origin. Temperatures on the Moon can reach a searing 100C in daytime, which doesn't provide the best conditions for the survival of ice.But because the Moon is tilted on its axis by about 1.5 degrees, there are places at the lunar poles that never see daylight. Scientists hope the water might be accessible as a resource for future human missions to the Moon.
