Evidence Mounts for Water on the Moon
This archival Apollo photograph, interpreted as evidence for water on the Moon, shows what appears to be a drinking fountain. While likely an April Fool's joke, actual missions in 2009 did find tantalizing signs of water on the lunar surface. This discovery suggests the possibility of using lunar resources in the future.
