| Nasa Announcement Today. (Water-Ice and Organic Material Found Near Poles) (Posted on 11/29/12 at 10:12 am)
At 2 ET.
Wonder if this was the one they were suppose to announce on Dec 20th but pushed it up. 
ETA: It's about Mercury
ETA 2: Nasa has announced that Mercury has cold regions at the poles. Water, as ice, can be sustained there and in fact is.
Somewhere between 100 billion and 1 trillion tons of water-ice between the north and south pole.
