SpaceX launched a double moon mission today (Feb. 26), sending a private lunar lander and a NASA orbiter to hunt for signs of water on Earth's nearest neighbor.

On Wednesday 26 February, a thermal imaging camera built by researchers at the University of Oxford's Department of Physics will blast off to the moon as part of NASA's Lunar Trailblazer mission. This aims to map sources of water on the moon to shed light on the lunar water cycle and to guide future robotic and human missions.

Feb. 26, NASA's Lunar Trailblazer will help resolve an enduring mystery: Where is the moon's water? After sharing a ride on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket with Intuitive Machines' IM-2 launch—part of NASA's CLPS (Commercial Lunar Payload Services) initiative—the small satellite will take several months to arrive in lunar orbit.
