Scientists from Ahmedabad-based Physical Research Laboratory have identified strong evidence of subsurface ice in some of the coldest craters near the Moon’s south pole using data from Chandrayaan-2, the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) said in a release on May 27.
The findings are based on observations from the Chandrayaan-2 orbiter’s Dual Frequency Synthetic Aperture Radar (DFSAR), a microwave imaging instrument capable of probing beneath the lunar surface.
