Lunar Ice Cube

Lunar IceCube is a small NASA satellite designed to study water and other ices on the Moon. It orbits the lunar surface to identify where ice exists, especially in shadowed regions where sunlight doesn't reach. Understanding lunar ice is important because it can provide resources for future missions, such as water for drinking or making rocket fuel. The mission helps scientists learn about the Moon's environment and how water is distributed, which is essential for planning long-term human exploration and establishing sustainable lunar bases.
