NASA slammed two craft into the lunar south pole to hunt for water, with a large empty rocket and a follow up camera probe. Early photos showed little plume activity but scientists stressed data from nine instruments will reveal the presence of water and the mission’s results may reshape lunar science.
Luke Sollitt a Northrop Grumman veteran and now an assistant professor of physics at the state military college watched the LCROSS mission from the Citadel as the rocket stage and satellite struck Cabeus crater near the moon south pole at about 5600 mph. He said the hit confirms the approach and hopes public interest fuels future manned missions though data analysis may take days to determine if water was found. The $583 million LCROSS mission launched last June included a companion satellite in lunar orbit to map the surface.
