China produced large quantities of water using the Moon’s soil
The Moon is a key piece of the space exploration puzzle. One of our next objectives is to visit Earth's satellite and establish a permanent base. The Moon can also offer access to various resources, including ways to create water and fuel in space.
Water is a crucial element of life, and space exploration hinges on the ability to recycle or produce water in space. We won't get to Mars and beyond without reliably producing enough water for the entire crew.
Researchers from China might have made a big step towards setting up a permanent mission on the Moon. They turned lunar soil into large quantities of water, using soil that the 2020 Chang'e-5 mission brought back from the Moon for their experiments.
