- Title
Is ice on the Moon just a mirage?
- Authors
Sanderson, Katharine
- Abstract
The article presents the work of astronomer Donald Campbell, and his colleagues of Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, which indicates that there is no possibility of water on the moon. The Arecibo radio telescope in Puerto Rico, has been used to send the data to the Moon, and captured the reflections using the Robert C. Byrd Green Bank Telescope in West Virginia. The only evidence of ice at Shackleton, is as dispersed particles in loose rock, not as lumps, as was previously thought.
