Two major discoveries revealed on September 24, 2009 may have made it a lot easier for humans to leave Earth and establish new colonies on the Moon and Mars. In a sensational announcement, NASA announced that there are vast quantities of water on the Moon, which has always been considered an arid world. A second discovery revealed that water ice exists at mid-latitudes on Mars. This is much further from the poles and closer to the equator than water was previously thought to lie and means there should be supplies for human explorers to drink.
