On October 9, 2009 at approximately 11:31:19 UTC the LRO/LCROSS Centaur impacted within about 100 meters of the planned target. The impact resulted in an ejecta cloud that was observed to expand to over 10 km across and to a height of more than 15 km above the surface. All instruments on the LCROSS SC performed well and a wealth of data was collected. All portions of the impact, including the flash, ejecta curtain and resulting crater, where observed. From the data set the presence of water was confirmed as was the presence of several other compounds. In this presentation an overview of the results will be pre-sented.
