Chinese scientists have found a way to extract water from lunar soil samples brought to Earth by the Chane-5 probe in 2020. Minerals in the lunar soil have been found to contain large amounts of hydrogen because they have been exposed to the solar wind for millions of years. When it is heated, ordinary iron and a large amount of water are formed.
During experiments, scientists found that 51-76 milligrams of water can be obtained from 1 gram of lunar soil.
