If it does, these natural underground spaces could offer future astronauts ready‑made protection from extreme temperatures and harmful radiation — important groundwork for safe, long‑term living on the Moon. Confirming these void spaces now could shift future habitat planning, offering natural, ready-made shelters that provide crucial thermal stability and shielding from deadly ionizing radiation and micrometeoroid bombardment.  </span></li></ul> <p style="margin: 0;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span></p> <p style="margin: 0;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif;">	Principal Investigator: Dr. Nathaniel Putzig, Planetary Science Institute</span></p> <p style="margin: 0;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span></p> <p style="margin: 0;"><span style="font-weight: bold; font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Distribution of Ice and Surface Characteristics Observatory (DISCO): </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span></p> <ul style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0;"><li> <span style="font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The DISCO payload will provide the first direct, on-the-ground measurements of ice hidden in lunar micro-cold traps and also will lay the groundwork for lunar resource utilization and surface operations. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">The payload will study how the lunar surface behaves, from how rocket exhaust disturbs the ground to how stable it is for mobility, while also pinpointing where ice exists and how much of it is there.
