Moon Water Discovery:
The moon bombing mission may have sounded dumb when you first heard of it but it was a huge success. With a special measurement tool the discovered water vapor at the point of impact. About a month ago they planned on basically using a lunar bomb to blow up a small portion of the moon. This wasn't really a significant amount of the lunar surface but it began research of a very significant scientific study. You would think the water would be at a little amount on the moon but it is actually a significant amount.

Binary Planets:
Have you ever heard of binary planets? You haven't, well binary planets are planets, moons, or a moon and a planet revolving around each other. An example of binary planets and/or moons is Pluto and its Moon, Charon. Pluto does revolve around the sun but because of Charons size, it revolves around its moon too. Fasinating right, its really cool to see these planets and moons in action.

Titan, One of Saturns Moons:
If the Earth were to experience a terrible event, Titan would be our only hope. Our atmosphere is somewhat similar to the one of Titan. Titan was discovered by Christiaan Huygens. It was discovered in 1655.
