Wow. What do people think of this, and, if valid, the implications for more trips to the moon?

"A tonne of lunar soil may yield just half-a-litre of water." Not likely to fill a swimming pool but better than nothing.

Depending on the type of rock, if you are going to process it for construction purposes (i.e. a moon base) then producing water as a side-effect can only be good. Also, if 1/2 a litre per tonne is an average, then some rocks may be more productive than others.

Isn't there something going on where NASA is going to crash a satellite into the moon and watch for traces of water in the debris cloud?

The live video feed was on the MSNBC.com. There was not much to see, but the reports are that the scientists are excited about the data received.
