I was recently reading the March - April 2025 issue of "Science Scope", a publication of the National Science Teaching Association.

In this issue, I read the section, "Scope on the Skies," written by Bob Riddle. He wrote an article entitled, "'Water Bound: Part I"

Space missions that search for water are important because they could add to our understanding of the origin and evolution of life on Earth and elsewhere in the solar system and beyond. Finding the presence of water is an important aspect of the search for life beyond the confines of our planet.
