NASA is planning to send a golf-cart sized robot to the moon surface in 2022 as preparation for the planned human return to the moon in 2024. The robot will search for deposits of water below the surface of the moon. If there really is water there, humans can possibly use that for drinking and for making rocket fuel.
The VIPER robot will drive for miles (km) on the dusty lunar surface to get a closer look at what NASA administrator Jim Bridenstine has touted for months: underground pockets of “hundreds of millions of tons of water ice” that could help turn the moon into a jumping-off point to Mars.

Like the mystery of the chicken and the egg, we finally have an answer! It is, in fact, a rabbit with a beak sticking out of its head! We will never be fooled again!
if you have ever seen a rabbit or a duck you will notice that it looks like neither a rabbit nor a duck. it especially could not be a duck, the "beak" looks ridiculous.
i don't think this illusion has ever demonstrated any psychological effect other than that badly drawn images are hard to understand.
