Eye on the immense treasures of many (many )countries

New Delhi. There has been a competition between many countries of the world regarding the possible resources on the moon. According to NASA, one million tons of Helium-3 is present on the Moon, which is a rare isotope on Earth. Similarly, many (many )  essential rare earth metals are also present on the Moon. The question is whether mining will start on the moon very soon. So the answer is; No. The 1966 United Nations Outer Space Treaty states that no country can claim sovereignty over the Moon or other celestial bodies, and that space exploration should benefit all countries.

Since the Chandrayaan-3 sent by India on its Moon mission, there has been a stir all over the world. After America, China and India, now Russia has launched Moon-landing spacecraft. In an important campaign of space exploration, Russia has taken this step in 47 years. The Moon, located at a distance of 3,84,400 km from our planet, plays an important role in maintaining climatic stability by controlling the axial fluctuations of the Earth. It also affects the sea tides of the world.
Immense treasure on the moon, that’s why many countries are getting attracted
Water was definitely discovered on the Moon in 2008 by the Indian mission Chandrayaan-1, which detected hydroxyl molecules scattered over the lunar surface and concentrated at the poles. Water is not only vital to human life but can also be a source of hydrogen and oxygen, which can be used for rocket fuel. The Moon is attracting global attention for its potential resources. Rare earth metals needed in advanced technologies such as smartphones and computers are also present on the Moon. According to research done by Boeing, these include scandium, yttrium and 15 lanthanides.
