This is John Bachelor, comment by my good colleague Bob Zimmerman.

He keeps the website behind the black, about two new studies in addition to more studies that have come out from other probes,

about water on the moon a critical

critical success if true because the colonies of the bases or the developments

on the moon depend on the ability, first of all to maintain human beings, and then

to reconstitute the fuel you need to get back to Earth or on to Mars.

Water on the moon, not running water, not ice, but elements that can

create water. Now two new studies and Bob introduces us and to the confusion which will continue until we get

back to the moon and contest it and experiment for ourselves until.

Here's Bob Zimmerman, more of this tonight we don't know this is the

uncertainty of science but on science but they were two different papers

published recently that I posted on behind the black together because both of them said that there is

water on the moon but I make the point in both these cases the sales pitch is

overstated the amount of water that they might be discovering is in the

rocks as molecules in the rocks and it's a very tiny amount. They're overstating the case.

That's simply the fact.

All the data continues to suggest

that there's a lot less water on the moon

than we had hoped for.
