NASA Probe Will Hunt for Lunar Water Where ‘Nobody Else’ Has Looked

The suitcase-sized probe will come to within 9 miles of the lunar south pole along its highly eccentric orbit, from where it will search for water ice in permanently shadowed craters. Lunar Flashlight will use four infrared lasers to shine beams of variously colored light in wavelengths that can be absorbed by surface water ice. The more absorption that’s observed, the greater potential there is for ice to exist on the surface.

Like I said, lots to unpack with this launch. It all gets started, fingers crossed, early tomorrow morning with the unassuming launch of a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket.
