It is understood that the research team of the Institute of Geochemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences recently studied the surface of the Chang 'e-5 moon and analyzed it through infrared spectroscopy and nanoparticle detectors. The results show that the surface of Chang 'e-5 moon contains a lot of water formed by solar wind, while the water content of Chang 'e-5 moon surface is 170 ppm.
After discovering this phenomenon, scientists found through TEM and energy dispersive spectrometer that the exposure time, crystal structure and composition of rocks played an important role in the formation and preservation of solar wind source water. This discovery shows that minerals on the surface of the moon are important water? Storage? At the same time, it also provides a good basis for the allocation of water resources in the mid-latitude area of the moon. The results of this study have been published in Nature? Published in the newsletter. According to the mineral composition of the lunar soil on Chang 'e-5, it is also considered that the lunar soil in Chang 'e-5 area contains at least 170 ppm of water formed by solar wind, which is much more than that in Chang 'e-5 area.
In addition, the results of this study show that in the mid-latitude areas of the moon, such as the northern part of the storm ocean and the Yuhai basin, the maturity of the lunar soil is similar to that of Chang 'e V area, and there may be water similar to that formed by the solar wind on the earth; In the plateau area in the northwest corner of the storm ocean, it is relatively mature lunar soil, where there is a lot of water from the solar wind. After China discovered this phenomenon, NASA revealed that China's lunar exploration program has made new progress. Liu Jizhong said in an exclusive interview with a reporter from the General Station that China has ratified the Treaty? Four issues? The lunar exploration program is currently under way.
