NASA moon bombing video Lacrosse video rocket crash into moon NASA LCROSS. It is an important occasion in the history of space exploration. NASA today undertook a mission that aims to prove beyond doubt the presence of water on the moon surface. If this is proved, and NASA claims that it was a final test to prove it following a recent NASA confirmation about water’s presence on moon, it will open up a whole new possibility of expansion of research and habitation on moon. NASA had sent two probing mission on board an Indian moon mission to further probe if there was water on moon.
The result was positive and Indian scientists belonging to its prestigious Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) also said that their probe too had established that indeed there was water on the surface of the moon. Today Lunar Crater Observation and Sensing Satellite (LCROSS) did a magnificent job by hitting the moon surface with a sped of around six thousand miles an hour. The findings will be known only after the detailed data analysis work is completed by NASA scientists and other scientists who are also cooperating with NASA. Moon has always fascinated the human beings. Since the Soviet Union first succeeded in implementing the concept in 1966, 18 spacecraft landed on the Moon up to 1976.
Nine of these missions returned to Earth bearing samples of Moon rocks. The former Soviet Union, the United States, Japan, Europe, India and China have all achieved hard Moon landings. The Soviet Union later achieved sample returns via the unmanned Luna 16, Luna 20 and Luna 24 Moon landings. Since this was during the time of the Cold War, the contest to be the first on the Moon was one of the most visible facts of the Space Race. The United States space agency NASA achieved the first manned landing on Earth's Moon as part of the Apollo 11 mission commanded by Neil Armstrong. On July 20, 1969, lunar module Eagle landed on the surface of the Moon, carrying Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin.
