This is huge news for people who want to build a base on the moon.

I had a NOVA episode taped from a couple months ago that I watched last night. To bring a 0.5L bottle of water to the moon right now, it costs $15,000.

If you don't have to bring water there, if you can mine it and purify it on the moon and use it for fuel and for agriculture and for everything, that's a lot better than having to fly in millions of liters of water.
