Scientists from the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) have reported the discovery of possible subsurface water-ice beneath four permanently shadowed craters located near the Moon’s south pole. This significant finding was made using radar data collected by the Chandrayaan-2 lunar orbiter, particularly within a 1.1 kilometer (0.7 mile) area inside the Faustini crater, which is protected from sunlight and radiation. The radar signatures and surface features observed indicate the presence of buried ice, as stated by ISRO. These results are crucial as they enhance our understanding of the distribution of lunar polar volatiles and could have far-reaching implications for future lunar exploration missions. Specifically, they may help identify regions that contain ice for potential landing sites and in-situ resource utilization. The analysis was conducted using the orbiter's advanced Dual Frequency Synthetic Aperture Radar (DFSAR), which is designed to probe beneath the lunar surface. This discovery adds to existing evidence suggesting that the Moon's polar regions could harbor substantial water resources, further supported by earlier observations from Chandrayaan-2 that detected water molecules and hydroxyl on the lunar surface.
