I didn't know there was water vapour/ molecules on the moon. (think I knew there was ice at the poles - trace) but not H2O and OH. It's tiny trace amounts, but it's there.

That the biathloners at Winter Olympics can hit a 4.5cm target at 50m distance after skiing at who knows what heart rate and exertion for kms at a time. Amazing athleticism and control and skill. :-) G

As physically active people you might know that the substance ATP is used as an energy transfer molecule in your cells' mitochondria - tiny powerhouses of the cell (or something like that). How much ATP do you think your body gets through (in weight) per day?
