It was not on the surface but during its journey through Moon's thin atmosphere. Observations from the Hubble Space Telescope have confirmed the discovery of the water and hydroxyl atmosphere in the lunar environment made by the CHACE payload in Chandrayaan-1/MIP mission. The analysis of CHACE data revealed the presence of H20 and 0H molecules in significant amount at all the latitudes maximising .
Thats right but then I suppose you better break the news to your comrades. The discovery of water vapor in the thin lunar atmosphere isn't the discovery they're celebrating.
