Japanese space spacecraft, Kaguya, showed the presence of uranium on the moon. This discovery proved the first evidence of radioactive element in there. The scientist announced that discovery on Lunar and Planetary Conference 40th and Proceedings of The International Workshop Advances in Cosmic Ray Science. This discovery led to the idea that Nuclear Generator can be built at the moon.
Kaguya that was launched in 2007 and ending the mission at June 10th 2009 then detected uranium by gamma-ray spectrometer. This is a device that was used to map the composition of the lunar surface and also the presence of thorium, potassium, oxygen, magnesium, silicon, calcium, titanium and iron. That discovery can help a human plan in the future and the scarcity of uranium in this earth can be filled through uranium at the moon.
