Water on the Moon!, opinion, WS Journal
“But for scientists, the real money shot is the data pouring in from that impact. True, it was a risk. Yet the cost of the mission – $79 million – was a tiny price to pay for billions that might be shaved off the space program if the experiment succeeded. The gamble has paid off in spades. Sensors have detected 24 gallons of water from the 60-foot crater created by the LCROSS experiment. On the moon, ice is worth more than gold.”
