月球上的水:探测历程与新的证据
Water on the Moon: Exploration History and New Evidence
摘要
Abstract
Assumption that water ice may occur on the moon was proposed as early as 1960s, but it has been lingering only over theory. Analysis of lunar samples collected during Apollo Mission in 1960s to 1970s shows that there was no any evidence of water on the moon. Although some indirect evidence acquired by 1994's Clementine and 1998's Lunar Prospector orbiter supports the water assumption,interpretation of the exploration data has been in doubt and dispute for a long time. In 2008,trace concentration of water was identified in the Apollo volcanic glass,and water content in the core is higher than that in outer ring. On Nov. 2009,the Lunar Crater Observation and Sensing Satellite ( LCROSS ),which is launched alone with the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter ( LRO ), was sent to crash Cabeus crater to search for water ice. The data acquired by LCROSS show that water occurs on the Cabeus crater. On March, 2010, water was detected in apatite-bearing lunar rocks. And the same year,water ice was found to occur on the Moon by Mini-SAR aboard on Indian Chandrayaan - 1 orbiter. All these results and evidence have provided powerful supports for the existence of water on the Moon.关键词
