Chinese scientists discover vast water source on the moon
中国科学家在月球上发现巨大水源(2023.4.5)
Chinese scientists have discovered a new water reservoir on the moon in the form of glass beads, which could have major 1、__(significant)for probing the water content of the Earth's only 2、___(nature) satellite and potentially extracting them to support future lunar missions.
A study 3、___(publish) in the journal Nature Geoscience last week revealed soil samples collected by China's Chang'e-5 lunar probe contained impact glass beads that held water in the form of hydroxyl, a molecule consisting 4、__ one oxygen atom and one hydrogen atom. Hydroxyl ion is one of the most common 5、__(ion) found in water.
These glass beads 6、___(create) when meteoroids hit the moon's surface, throwing up hot molten droplets 7、__ then cool and turn solid. They function like a sponge, soaking up hydrogen atoms carried by the solar wind to form hydroxyl, thus playing 8、___ pivotal role in the water cycle of the lunar surface.
While each bead only 9、__(hold) a tiny amount of water, these glass balls are so ubiquitous on the moon researchers estimated lunar soils could store as much as 270 billion metric tons of water. For decades, scientists thought the moon was bone dry until discoveries in recent years revealed 10、___(it) soil could hold water.

中国科学家在月球上发现了一个新的玻璃珠形式的蓄水池,这可能对探测地球上唯一的天然卫星的含水量具有重大意义,并有可能提取它们来支持未来的月球任务。
上周发表在《自然地球科学》杂志上的一项研究显示,中国嫦娥五号月球探测器收集的土壤样本中含有以羟基形式保持水分的撞击玻璃珠,羟基是一种由一个氧原子和一个氢原子组成的分子。羟基离子是水中最常见的离子之一。
这些玻璃珠是流星体撞击月球表面时产生的,喷出热的熔融液滴,然后冷却并变为固体。它们的功能就像海绵,吸收太阳风携带的氢原子形成羟基,从而在月球表面的水循环中发挥关键作用。
虽然每个珠子只能容纳少量的水,但这些玻璃球在月球上无处不在。研究人员估计,月球土壤可以储存多达2700亿吨的水。几十年来,科学家们一直认为月球非常干燥,直到近年来的发现表明月球的土壤可以蓄水。
