Open University scientists are testing the 'Moon dust' for the water
Scientists have researched how water is extracted can be from The Surface of The Moon
"Moon dust" could be an important source of fuel, building materials and even Drinking Water for astronauts, according to the Open University.
researchers based in Milton Keynes are investigating the possibilities of the human being "live off The Land ", if you set foot on The Moon .
The Team bases its study on the lunar-earth-compiled by Neil Armstrong in 1969.
PhD student Hannah Sargeant, said: "to consider We have, for each milligram of. "
Minute samples of lunar rocks collected during NASA's Apollo 11 mission in The Department of Physical Sciences at the Open University (OU) in Milton Keynes .
experiments, in collaboration with the European Space Agency (ESA) and the Russian scientists could be on The Moon , south polar region, in five years ' time, scientists Hope .

"water is one of The Most important resources we need For Space exploration - not only for the Life Support needs of the people, but also rocket fuel," said Ms. Sargeant.
the development of New techniques that have been found in Milton Keynes , much higher concentrations of water in some rocks, as demonstrated in the original studies.
Hannah Sargeant is working on techniques to extract water from moon rocksDr. Mahesh Anand , professor of Planetary Science and research at the level of the organizational unit, a pioneer in The Search for water on The Moon for 10 years.
He is also the co-operation with scientists in Cologne, Germany, was to "melt" moon dust for use in future construction projects in space.
Research fellow, Dr Simon Sheridan developed a "mass spectrometer" on a prototype, which is designed to sniff to "" gases on The Surface in search of water.
Ms Sargeant said: "The production of water, either from frozen deposits on the lunar poles or the production of water from the rock itself, to allow The First step, such a long-term space missions. "
