NASA studies the most propitious to send to future
human and robotic missions to the moon with Ultraviolet Telescope. Hubble has
found concentrations of a mineral that could be used as oxygen source for
future space missions on the Moon.It is a mineral called Limousin, which is
rich in titanium and iron oxide, and which could be extracted with relative
ease to provide air oxygen, water and fuel to astronauts.
This concentration of minerals have been discovered
in the crater Aristarchus, when exploring the satellite Hubble also
photographed areas in the past landed the Apollo 15 and 17 moles on their
visits.
The results captured by the telescope still being
evaluated by scientists as part of investigations to send a new manned mission
to the moon in 2018.
Although Hubble was doomed to be destroyed continues
to provide valuable astronomical images. His replacement would be operational
by 2012.
