NASA is about to crash a satellite and a spent upper stage into a shadowed crater near the Moon's south pole, to see if it acts like a giant cold trap and holds significant water.
I'm guessing that it will be low-to-none. This will be disappointing to exploration dudes, but is far more interesting scientifically.
The moon has not yet risen here in Australia, so it will not be possible to observe the impact.
I wish the NASA TV folks would speak metric, though.
