- ISRO's Chandrayaan-2 orbiter has detected water molecules on the moon's surface.
- There was widespread lunar hydration and unambiguous detection of OH and H2O signatures on the moon between 29 degrees north and 62 degrees north latitude.
- The findings were published in Current Science Journal.
- According to the researchers, the formation of hydroxyl or water molecules occurs due to a process called space weathering.
- Space weathering happens when the solar winds blow over the lunar surface.
