I've always been surprised to hear that the moon is a dead world with no water at all on its surface.
Now, the recent finding of water radically changes our approach of the moon. If there is water in the soil, that implies that water has the ability to infiltrate into the dusty soil of the moon instead of vanishing into outerspace. You see what I mean! The prospect of a network of caves carved by liquid water beneath the surface of the moon can be envisaged. You may find a similar pressure to that of the Earth at sea level about 30 meters beneath surface level on the Moon. What are the thermal conditions at this depth? Can water appear in its liquid form?... |

No. This is what I think based on existing data.
