The Moon's surface is continuously bombarded by meteorites and micrometeorites. Many, if not most, of these impactors contain water ice, and the lunar craters show that many of these were very large objects. Any ice which survived impact would be scattered over the lunar surface. Most would be quickly vaporized by sunlight and lost to space, but some would end up inside the permanently shadowed craters, either by directly entering the crater or migrating over the surface as randomly moving individual molecules which would reach the craters and freeze there.

What do many scientist think the first Americans came from?
Many scientists believe that the first Americans came from Asia, migrating into North America via the Bering land bridge during the last Ice Age. This migration is estimated to have occurred around 15,000-20,000 years ago.

A couple of Hydrogen and one Oxygen molecule. H2O.
What form of water is on Saturn's moon titan?
Under Titan's surface, there may be ice. NASA scientists believe there is liquid water beneath the water ice.
Does the sea of tranquility have ice on it?
The sea of tranquility is nothing but ice, the moon has no running water on it. - I would suggest it is mainly rock and dust. There is little evidence of water (albeit as ice) on the moon, although using data from a radar that flew aboard India's Chandrayaan-1 spacecraft, NASA scientists believe they have detected ice deposits near the moon's north pole.
What movie did the phrase stranger danger come from?
i think it came from the movie ice age
How ocean is formed by comeps?
Comets containing ice hit the earth, the ice melted and contributed to our oceans. Scientists don't know what percentage of our ocean came from comets.
What did scientists find out about the the moon from the Apollo mission?
Scientists learned that the moon has no atmosphere, has a relatively thin crust compared to Earth, and its surface is covered in impact craters. They also found evidence of water ice in permanently shadowed regions near the lunar poles.
Why do scientists think the Pacific walrus is endangered?
Scientists feel that since the Pacific Walrus rest on sea ice to forage for food, climate change is making that sea ice disappear and the walrus will have no place to rest.
Where does the water came from?
Two ways... Ice (think of the artic) that melts... or air that condense (think of rain).
Do scientists think there might be any life on Mars?
Possibly, they found ice... and in ice is water and in water is bacteria and all sorts of living things!
Did the scientist find water on the moon?
Yes, scientists have found water on the moon. Recent discoveries have shown that there is water ice in the permanently shadowed areas of the moon's poles. This water could potentially be used for future human missions to the moon.
What moon of Jupiter might have life?
The moon scientist think might have life is Europa. It has oceans 3 to 60 miles under ice.
