Ice is believed to have been discovered in the floors of craters at the north and south poles of the Moon, which are permanently shaded from the Sun. This means that temperatures in these areas can remain low enough for ice to remain stable. Data from recent missions such as NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter have provided evidence of the presence of ice in these areas.
