Georgia Tech researchers study lunar samples at nanoscale to reveal risks to human space missions.

They found evidence of water on the moon, which is critical for the Artemis program.

Georgia Tech has built a large portfolio in human exploration and lunar science over the last decade .

Research areas include how solar wind and micrometeorites produce volatiles.

Radiation and its effects on the dust and lunar surface pose dangers to people, and the main protection is the spacesuit.

The goal is to build models that can feed into orbital maps of the moon.

The next research phase will involve combining the UGA analysis tools with a new tool from Georgia Tech .
