LONDON, Oct. 22 (UPI) -- A European mission to the moon will search for signs of water that could allow future astronauts to set up habitats on its surface, scientists say.
Planned for 2018, the $800 million mission by the European Space Agency will land a robot probe on the Moon's surface to search for ice that measurements from orbiting spacecraft have suggested may exist at the poles and in the shadows of meteor craters.
