TL;DR: In this article, the authors found deficits of high-energy neutrons in the southern highlands and northern lowlands of Mars, indicating that hydrogen is concentrated in the subsurface.

TL;DR: Higher abundances of chlorinated hydrocarbons in the mudstone compared with Rocknest windblown materials previously analyzed by Curiosity suggest that indigenous martian or meteoritic organic carbon sources may be preserved in the Mudstone; however, the carbon source for the chlorinatedHydrocarbons is not definitively of martian origin.

TL;DR: The LCROSS impact site inside the Cabeus crater demonstrates the highest hydrogen concentration in the lunar south polar region, corresponding to an estimated content of 0.5 to 4.0% water ice by weight, depending on the thickness of any overlying dry regolith layer.

TL;DR: The design of the Lunar Exploration Neutron Detector (LEND) experiment was optimized to address several of the primary measurement requirements of NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO): high spatial resolution hydrogen mapping of the Moon's uppermost surface, identification of putative deposits of appreciable near-surface water ice in the Moon polar cold traps, and characterization of the human-relevant space radiation environment in lunar orbit as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: The DAN instrument will use the method of neutron-neutron activation analysis in a space application to study the abundance and depth distribution of water in the martian subsurface along the path of the MSL rover.
