NASA is announcing that a significant amount of water has been found on the moon. This is a big break through because if the water can be extracted for the astronauts then there will not be such a big payload for their water supply then need.
The moon has a atmosphere that is helping make sure the water is not going anywhere. This is why we need to have a base on the moon already. Think of the explorations we can do if we were launching from the moon instead of wasting soo much fuel on fighting the earths gravity.
