Morgan Nunn Martinez studied lunar rocks from the 1969 Apollo 9 mission to learn about the origin of moon water. They found water in them by heating these rocks to 50, 150, and 1,000 degrees Celsius (122, 302, and 1,832 degrees Fahrenheit, respectively). The team analyzed the water’s oxygen isotopes to determine its origin.
