Weekly World News: Prospector Found Holy Water on Moon?
Although NASA spokesmen recently confirmed that the Lunar Prospector found no water on the lunar surface, the Weekly World News stubbornly insists that the probe not only discovered water, but holy water at that.
According to "a high-level NASA insider," the probe found at least 120 gallons of water shortly after crashing on the moon July 31.
However, in a dramatic turn of events, the informant told the News that NASA "began to get signals back from the craft indicating that every system was coming back on line -- as if it had somehow been 'healed.'"
Surprised technicians were then able to bring the revived Prospector -- along with a sample of the miraculous substance -- back to earth under its own power, the supermarket tabloid reported in its October 19 issue.

When analyzed, the lunar water turned out to be "natural holy water," in the insider's words, with a chemical composition more or less identical to the healing waters at the pilgrimage center of Lourdes, the source told the News.
As such, it is perhaps not surprising that the substance's curative properties extended beyond broken space vehicles to human beings as well. NASA researchers were dumbfounded to discover that four cancer patients went into complete remission within hours of being exposed to the moon water, the News said.
As far as official sources at the space agency know, the probe did not actually find any water on the moon, nor did it enjoy a miraculous resurrection and return to earth.
