For the first time, NASA has confirmed the water molecule, H2O, in sunlit areas of the Moon, indicating that water is widely distributed across the lunar surface.

This week’s full Moon will deliver more than just Halloween ambience.

This discovery indicates that water may be distributed across the lunar surface, and not limited to cold, shadowed places.

New designs could help future explorers to answer nature’s call on missions to the Moon.

NASA will announce a new discovery about the Moon at a media teleconference at 12 p.m. EDT Monday, Oct. 26.

The ancient Moon’s magnetic field may have helped our planet to become habitable.

NASA is seeking ideas from the public for powering exploration on the Moon.

We want to know: what would you pack for a trip to the Moon?

The public is invited to virtually attend NASA’s International Observe the Moon Night event on Saturday, September 26.

The contest, open to U.S. students in grades K-12, challenges participants to imagine leading a one-week expedition to the Moon’s South Pole.

While our Moon is airless, research indicates the presence of a form of rust that normally requires oxygen and water.

Chris Culbert and Camille Alleyne explain how NASA will use commercially built and operated landers from American companies to send payloads to the surface of the Moon.

Dozens of times over the last decade, NASA scientists and collaborators have launched laser beams at a reflector the size of a paperback novel orbiting the Moon. Today they announced that they have received a return signal for the first time.

Taking advantage of a total lunar eclipse, astronomers using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope have detected ozone in Earth's atmosphere.

A microwave oven–sized CubeSat will serve as the first spacecraft to test a unique, elliptical lunar orbit, paving the way for humanity's future on and around the Moon.

Beginning on the near side of the Moon, with the Apollo sites marked, the view quickly moves to the South Pole and zooms in to show the changing illumination conditions there for an entire year.

Preparing to explore the surface of the Moon goes well beyond designing and building safe spacecraft and spacesuits. NASA also has to ensure the surface vehicles and suits have the mobility required to do science, and that astronauts have the tools they need to identify and scoop up rock and soil samples.

What started out as a hunt for ice lurking in polar lunar craters turned into an unexpected finding that could help scientists better understand the Moon’s formation.

Which way the wind blows in space has new importance for astronaut safety at the Moon.
