"So have we discussed that NASA is going to bomb the moon tomorrow?"

literally. bomb the moon.

Nasa to �bomb� moon in search of water

Washington, 8 Oct: Just weeks after Isro and Nasa announced discovery of evidence of water on the lunar surface, the US Space agency is all set to bomb the Moon tomorrow in search for hidden water in a controversial mission.

Scientists will see two spacecraft slamming into the moon's south pole at 9,000 kmph kicking up a 10-km-high shower of debris that National Aeronautics and Space Administration (Nasa) hopes will confirm the presence of enough water necessary to supply future visits by astronauts.

Amateur astronomers in parts of the world may be able to view the impact through a telescope; for everyone else, the crash will be broadcast live on the Nasa website along with early pictures of the lunar dust cloud during the dramatic mission. Within an hour of the impact, scientists will know whether water was hiding there or not.
The Indian Space Research Organisation(ISRO) announced last month that the country's first unmanned lunar mission Chandrayaan-I found evidence of water on the moon within a month after it was launched in October last year to make the first such discovery. Nasa had also announced last month that it found evidence of water. ;PTI

Because we need understanding of our surroundings.

>All Powerful...like some 2009 Tower of Babel scenario.

I doubt the scientist involved in this were like "let's be like god, let's shoot a tiny missile at the moon and create a hole that pales in comparison to the craters left on the moon's surface by actual meteorite impacts on a monthly basis."

>smh.

Indeed.

>we bomb tomorrow.

If you're scared to have kids because of this shit, wait till you hear about traffic accidents, cancer, suicidal thoughts and/or small arms! You know, just to name a few realistic causes of death.

>i mean damn!

Damn @ the basic level of understanding in this thread. Good thing there's a few good jokes in here as well.

from the moon to earth in 13 years. If a projectile came off the moon from an uncalculated mishap, it would arrive here tonight or tomorrow.

NASA is composed of well-trained, very knowledgable scientists. If it were up to the general public to run NASA we would never make it to the moon in the first place. Trust me on this one, we're safe.

Do whatever on Mars but the moon shouldn't be tampered with, especially since we depend on it. If they can't find a better, less destructive way to get water from the moon, then they should leave it alone.

And while I think the ideal you're describing is worth striving for, I also think competition is good for advancement.

In response to Reply # 108

If we are going to do extended space missions, or potentially develop a permanent lunar facility we'll need to know if there is water on the moon to help sustain the astronauts.

should we spend billions of dollars to send a manned mission to the moon, and have them assemble a giant drill, and take months to drill down far enough to see if there's water? Or should we spend 10% of that amount to just crash some shit into the moon at high speed to create a big ass hole where we can get our answer much faster?

Nasa's assuming they'll find water water in the moon with the bombing, there's no gaurantee. Aint like the moon has sprung a trickle of water anywhere so it is stupid. Aside from sending folks in space and collecting moon dust, what has NASA done to enrich human life here on earth?

In response to Reply # 114
Fri Oct-09-09 12:42 PM by KosherSam

and as for the "what have they done?" argument....

1. SATELLITE TELEVISION: Our world would not be the same without the satellites now in orbit around the Earth � all thanks to the space programme. They not only give us satellite broadcast television and radio but also power telecommunications including mobile phones and terrestrial TV networks.

2. SAT NAV: The global positioning system on which our in-car navigation systems are based was developed by the US Department of Defense. They would not exist without the space satellites.

3. GOOGLE EARTH: Mapping was never as accurate as the images we can now get thanks to satellites which from space can even see a dog in your back garden.

4. VIRTUAL REALITY: Nasa-developed research and advanced technology devices allow users to project themselves into a computer-generated environment. When coupled with a stereo-viewing device and appropriate software, it creates a feeling of actually being there.

5. ARTIFICIAL LIMBS: Prosthetic limbs are not new but advancements in space robotics are being adapted to create more lifelike, functioning limbs.

6. DIALYSIS: Modern machines to do the work of the kidneys � for patients waiting for or unable to have transplants � were developed as a result of a Nasa-developed chemical process.

7. MRI AND CAT SCANS: Nasa did not invent magnetic resonance imaging but it has contributed to major advances thanks to research into computer enhancement of pictures sent from the moon. Digital image processing has led to enhanced images of human organs.

8. BREAST CANCER SCREENING: A silicon chip originally developed for Nasa�s Hubble Space Telescope makes the testing process less painful, less scarring and less expensive than traditional biopsy methods.

9. ULTRASOUND TO ASSESS SKIN DAMAGE: An advanced instrument uses ultrasound technology to assess the depth of burn damage immediately, improving patient treatment and saving lives in serious burn cases.

10. EAR THERMOMETER: Removing the need to use intrusive, mercury-based thermometers on newborn babies and critically ill patients, the ear thermometer uses infrared astronomy technology to measure the amount of energy emitted by the eardrum. This is how Nasa measures the temperature of stars and planets.

11. ATTENTION GETTER: Techniques used to measure brain activity in Nasa pilots are being used to improve attention spans for children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.

12. ROAD SAFETY: The cutting of grooves in concrete to increase traction was developed to reduce space shuttle accidents on runways. It is now applied to roads and has cut US traffic accidents by 85 per cent.

13. IMPROVED RADIAL TIRES: Goodyear developed a fibrous material five times stronger than steel for Nasa to use in parachutes to land the Viking explorers on Mars. They expanded the technology to produce a harder-wearing radial car tire.

14. LANDMINE REMOVAL: Surplus rocket fuel is used for a flare that can burn a hole in the case of a mine and burn away its explosive content.

15. STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS: Nasa software engineers have created thousands of computer programs to find imperfections in aerospace structures and components which has proved invaluable in air safety.

16. WATER FILTERS: Water-cleaning technology has existed since the early Fifties but Nasa came up with ways to filter it in more extreme situations. The activated charcoal with silver ions used in commercial filter systems cleans the water and kills bacteria.

17. FREEZE-DRIED FOOD: Nasa carried out extensive research to reduce the weight of food to be carried on missions. The result was a method for cooking food, freezing it quickly, then slowly heating it in a vacuum chamber to remove the ice crystals. The end product weighs one fifth of the original, while retaining 98 per cent of its nutrition.

18. TEMPER FOAM: Nasa developed a soft, high-energy-absorbent padding to improve crash protection in aircraft. Now �memory foam� is used in mattresses, pillows, military and civilian vehicles, sports safety equipment, amusement park rides, furniture and artificial limbs.

19. SCRATCH-RESISTANT LENSES: A modified version of a process developed by Nasa involves coating the lenses with a film of carbon that helps avoid scratches and decreases friction and reduces water spots.

20. RIBBED SWIMSUITS: The swimsuit worn by Olympic sensation Michael Phelps was developed with Nasa technology. Aerodynamic research came up with material which give 15 per cent faster speeds than any other swimsuit thanks to small, barely visible grooves that reduce friction and drag.

21. AERODYNAMIC GOLF BALLS: Technology is behind the design of golf balls with 500 dimples in a pattern of 60 triangles which allows the ball to maintain its initial speed longer and produce a more stable flight for better accuracy and distance.

22. ATHLETIC SHOES: Moon-boot material has been incorporated into running shoe midsoles to improve shock absorption and provide better stability and motion control.

23. PERSONAL ALARM SYSTEMS: A pen-sized ultrasonic transmitter used by prison guards, teachers, the elderly and disabled to call for help is based on space technology.

24. SPACE PENS: Most pens depend on gravity to make the ink flow to the ballpoint. The space pen was developed for the gravity-free space environment so that the ink cartridge contains pressurised gas to push the ink towards the ballpoint, so you can write upside down.

25. CORDLESS POWER TOOLS: The household and DIY products firm Black & Decker came up with a portable drill capable of extracting core samples from below the lunar surface during the Apollo missions. The same technology has been used on cordless miniature vacuum cleaners.

And most recent developments in science are group efforts.

Without NASA, or the space race in general, we wouldn't have a lot of technologies that we benefit from today.

Don't put words in our mouths.

We're simply saying that the kind of research that NASA stands for, is very important when it comes to scientific progress, and therefore indirectly for the quality of human life.

You keep trying to spin what we say in an effort to validate your unfounded claim that NASA is a useless waste of money.

And that list isn't either. If you're interested in more details on those scientific developments, look them up on wikipedia. Nobody is trying to withhold that information from you to prevent denting the GLORY OF NASA; it's not in the article because it would be the size of the internet if were that extensive/inclusive.

Let me stop before I really get snarky.

218. "here's the thing..."
In response to Reply # 187

no one is saying NASA is the be all and end all of science.

what i'm saying is that there are many things that were invented or improved specifically BECAUSE of something that nasa was working on.

sure, someone may have developed satellite technology if nasa never existed, but because nasa DID exist, you had a team of some of the best engineers and scientists in the world working towards the specific goal of creating it.

so it's not that nasa *is* science. but the existence and funding of organizations such as nasa create an environment where the best and brightest minds are creating new technologies and making new discoveries that better all of society while working towards the goal of understanding the universe around us.

180. "Seriously? Stop. "
In response to Reply # 163

What dude mentioned is only the tip of the Iceberg, anyone who actually WORKS in the realm of science, tech or engineering is fully aware of critical breakthroughs that were either:

- Done by scientists at NASA
- Funded by NASA
- Done in conjunction with NASA

Slamming a satellite into the moon to check for water isn't going to hurt anything, Satellite's, debris, meteors, etc, have all crashed into earth and the world didn't end.

Seriously.

Stop.

Peace,

anyone in the realm of science also knows that every action has a equal and opposite reaction. Aside from an extra hole in the moon, this whole moon bomb is a guessing game with all sorts of unknown outcomes.
And even if NASA has funded various scientific breakthroughs, it doesn't make it there's to claim, nor is NASA the begin all or end all for the science community or the future of science.

220. "did you ever take science in high school?"
In response to Reply # 197

both nasa and the indian space program discovered evidence that there may be water on the moon, which caused the creation of this experiment.

based on the evidence, they formed a hypothesis that there was a specific spot on the moon where they would likely find ice beneath the surface if they looked.

they created a test, where they would cause a small explosion in that spot, and use nine separate measuring instruments to analyze the debris of the explosion, which would definitively tell them either that there was ice in that spot, or that there was not.

they performed the test, and will have the results of the analysis within two weeks, which will either prove or disprove their hypothesis.

and the most important part - this experiment is repeatable, so that anyone who doubts their findings could perform the same experiment and compare the results. that is the very nature of the scientific method.

so to say "this is all guesswork" completely misses the point of the very existence of science.

229. "Larger Asteroids hit the Moon EVERY DAY"
In response to Reply # 197

They're not blowing a hole THROUGH the moon, they're causing a tiny crater just to kick up some dust.

They already know what the basic outcomes are because of the large asteroids that have already hit the moon and created craters, basic astronomy.

This is NOT a cause for alarm.

The Asteroids that hit the moon all the time are MUCH, MUCH, MUCH bigger than the Satellites.

Think about it:

This is like saying that a jelly bean that hits your Windshield is going to cause more damage than the Boulder that already put a hole in it.

Come on now.

Basic science.

You're trying to analyze the situation without all the data necessary, and without the proper knowledge and understanding.

How is the Satellite going to cause problems that Asteroids don't?

You're just arguing to argue about something.

Again, where did you get your science education?

Peace,

M2

Black man's word isn't good enough. Gotta get it confirmed by Hitler's old scientists for it to be true.

lol

people better not tell me shit anymore about it being 2009 and we need to get with the times when theres a bigass piece of ice and dirt floating around our planet for as long as we can remember (some say their used to be more than one). mfs have visited (so they claimed) and even brought pieces back and only NOW can they tell us its COVERED with ice... and *might* have water/ice inside.

see i never paid attention to those "moon landing was a hoax" people but come on. they brought fuckin rocks back from the moon and they didn't see they all had evidence of water stuck too it?

shit ain't right. this could be another one of those distractions to keep us from something else. not sayin there is no water. i'm sayin they prolly been knew that shit but kept it hush for whatever reason (top secret shit is considered top secret for reasons we don't know or else there would be no phrase 'top secret') but i'm sayin they could have some completely other shit going on in the world we should be watching but they're building to this so that night we'll all be glued to the tv watching... ice... that's been there damn near forever.

yay! mj died again!

112. "Top 25 NASA-linked technologies *swipe*"
In response to Reply # 110

THE National Aeronautics And Space Administration (Nasa) began 50 years ago today.
In that time it has celebrated some historic highs and some tragic lows.

It put the first men on the moon, won the space race with the USSR during the Cold War � but lost 17 astronauts in three missions which ended in disaster.

The incredible rescue of Apollo 13 gave us the now familiar phrase: �Houston, we have a problem.�

Since October 1, 1958, Houston has solved countless problems, not just in space but here on Earth. Contrary to popular belief, Nasa did NOT invent barcodes, quartz clocks, smoke detectors, Teflon or Velcro.

But most of us have reason every day to thank Nasa for giant leaps in technology which we tend to take for granted. Here are 25 of them:

1. SATELLITE TELEVISION: Our world would not be the same without the satellites now in orbit around the Earth � all thanks to the space programme. They not only give us satellite broadcast television and radio but also power telecommunications including mobile phones and terrestrial TV networks.

2. SAT NAV: The global positioning system on which our in-car navigation systems are based was developed by the US Department of Defense. They would not exist without the space satellites.

3. GOOGLE EARTH: Mapping was never as accurate as the images we can now get thanks to satellites which from space can even see a dog in your back garden.

4. VIRTUAL REALITY: Nasa-developed research and advanced technology devices allow users to project themselves into a computer-generated environment. When coupled with a stereo-viewing device and appropriate software, it creates a feeling of actually being there.

5. ARTIFICIAL LIMBS: Prosthetic limbs are not new but advancements in space robotics are being adapted to create more lifelike, functioning limbs.

6. DIALYSIS: Modern machines to do the work of the kidneys � for patients waiting for or unable to have transplants � were developed as a result of a Nasa-developed chemical process.

7. MRI AND CAT SCANS: Nasa did not invent magnetic resonance imaging but it has contributed to major advances thanks to research into computer enhancement of pictures sent from the moon. Digital image processing has led to enhanced images of human organs.

8. BREAST CANCER SCREENING: A silicon chip originally developed for Nasa�s Hubble Space Telescope makes the testing process less painful, less scarring and less expensive than traditional biopsy methods.

9. ULTRASOUND TO ASSESS SKIN DAMAGE: An advanced instrument uses ultrasound technology to assess the depth of burn damage immediately, improving patient treatment and saving lives in serious burn cases.

10. EAR THERMOMETER: Removing the need to use intrusive, mercury-based thermometers on newborn babies and critically ill patients, the ear thermometer uses infrared astronomy technology to measure the amount of energy emitted by the eardrum. This is how Nasa measures the temperature of stars and planets.

11. ATTENTION GETTER: Techniques used to measure brain activity in Nasa pilots are being used to improve attention spans for children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.

12. ROAD SAFETY: The cutting of grooves in concrete to increase traction was developed to reduce space shuttle accidents on runways. It is now applied to roads and has cut US traffic accidents by 85 per cent.

13. IMPROVED RADIAL TIRES: Goodyear developed a fibrous material five times stronger than steel for Nasa to use in parachutes to land the Viking explorers on Mars. They expanded the technology to produce a harder-wearing radial car tire.

14. LANDMINE REMOVAL: Surplus rocket fuel is used for a flare that can burn a hole in the case of a mine and burn away its explosive content.

15. STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS: Nasa software engineers have created thousands of computer programs to find imperfections in aerospace structures and components which has proved invaluable in air safety.

16. WATER FILTERS: Water-cleaning technology has existed since the early Fifties but Nasa came up with ways to filter it in more extreme situations. The activated charcoal with silver ions used in commercial filter systems cleans the water and kills bacteria.

17. FREEZE-DRIED FOOD: Nasa carried out extensive research to reduce the weight of food to be carried on missions. The result was a method for cooking food, freezing it quickly, then slowly heating it in a vacuum chamber to remove the ice crystals. The end product weighs one fifth of the original, while retaining 98 per cent of its nutrition.

18. TEMPER FOAM: Nasa developed a soft, high-energy-absorbent padding to improve crash protection in aircraft. Now �memory foam� is used in mattresses, pillows, military and civilian vehicles, sports safety equipment, amusement park rides, furniture and artificial limbs.

19. SCRATCH-RESISTANT LENSES: A modified version of a process developed by Nasa involves coating the lenses with a film of carbon that helps avoid scratches and decreases friction and reduces water spots.

20. RIBBED SWIMSUITS: The swimsuit worn by Olympic sensation Michael Phelps was developed with Nasa technology. Aerodynamic research came up with material which give 15 per cent faster speeds than any other swimsuit thanks to small, barely visible grooves that reduce friction and drag.

21. AERODYNAMIC GOLF BALLS: Technology is behind the design of golf balls with 500 dimples in a pattern of 60 triangles which allows the ball to maintain its initial speed longer and produce a more stable flight for better accuracy and distance.

22. ATHLETIC SHOES: Moon-boot material has been incorporated into running shoe midsoles to improve shock absorption and provide better stability and motion control.

23. PERSONAL ALARM SYSTEMS: A pen-sized ultrasonic transmitter used by prison guards, teachers, the elderly and disabled to call for help is based on space technology.

24. SPACE PENS: Most pens depend on gravity to make the ink flow to the ballpoint. The space pen was developed for the gravity-free space environment so that the ink cartridge contains pressurised gas to push the ink towards the ballpoint, so you can write upside down.

25. CORDLESS POWER TOOLS: The household and DIY products firm Black & Decker came up with a portable drill capable of extracting core samples from below the lunar surface during the Apollo missions. The same technology has been used on cordless miniature vacuum cleaners.

I'd take cable over satellite. Besides that I think Telsa's invention was better and a lot more ahead of his and NASA's time. Not to mention their cluttering the orbit, crashing into each other and losing parts, also the whole spying ish.

In response to Reply # 0

I've read most of what some of you rational people have posted about it not being a bomb and asteroids have hit the moon that has been way bigger than what NASA is planning to hit the moon with but all in all, I still feel the moon is to sacred to the earth for us to be fucking with it when it help controls our weather.

I will be watching closely as many of us will be also, hopefully everything will go okay and NASA finds what they're looking for but I hope this isn't just some attempt to keep money fueled in NASA projects in a time when the USA can't afford to be funding them right now.

182. "Because larger Asteroids hit the Moon ALL THE TIME"
In response to Reply # 59

Larger Asteroids that cause significantly more damage have been hitting the moon on a regular since the dawn of time, these Satellites are pebbles in comparison.

Throwing some dust to analyze it for water is for the advancement of scientific knowledge, and will cause NO problems for people on earth or for the Moon itself.

If it would cause any problems we'd all be dead from any of the other asteroids, meteors, etc, which have smashed into the moon or any of the other planet.

Seriously, anyone freaking out about this really needs to take a science class or nine.

*shakes head*

But what do I know? I was only a Physics major.

Peace,

82. "TRANSCRIPT"
In response to Reply # 78

11.13am: The mission is called LCROSS and by lunchtime today we expect it to be in a thousand pieces scattered over the lunar surface, having thumped into the moon at more than 9,000 kilometres per hour and leaving a crater as wide as a cricket pitch.

One part of the spacecraft is due to strike the moon at around 12.30pm BST. The second part will follow it down and scan the debris plume � which is expected to rise up to 10km � for signs of water. Of course, the probe is fitted with highly advanced cheese sensors too, courtesy of engineers at Ecole Normale Superieur, Paris.

The probes will be steered into a huge, permanently shadowed crater on the moon's south pole. Scientists believe that frozen water ice might lie at the bottom of the crater basin.

Our technology correspondent, Bobbie Johnson, has written about the mission in detail.

Nasa will begin their live coverage of the event at around 11.15 BST today. I'll start live blogging the event abour 45 minutes later � as soon as I'm out of this week's science podcast, where our guest is an expert in the evolution of penises and sexual activity across the animal kingdom.

The LCROSS probes are going to tweet their own demise � and you can see these last missives on the right of this page.

See you back here for the big event.

12.07pm: Back again. Lcross is heading for the moon at more than 3,000 kilometres an hour. The scientific instruments are on and rolling.

Factoid of the minute: I was in touch with Nasa HQ in Washington last night. They aren't best pleased with some of the media referring to Nasa "bombing" the moon. Here's the best bit: they've had calls from concerned women that the impact might cause so much damage to the moon that it will disrupt their menstrual cycles. Other callers are worried it will play havoc with the tides. And they say scientific literacy is declining.

Nasa argues that "bombing" requires explosives. In that case, Nasa has already bombed the moon, back in the Apollo days, when astronauts used explosive charges to send shockwaves into the moon's interior during seismological studies.

Twenty minutes from impact.

12.17pm: Personal disaster no.1: The moon is about to be torn a new crater and I hadn't even flicked the switch that lets people add their own comments. Oops.

12.20pm: We know water is locked up in silcates and other minerals in the top few millimetres of the moon's regolith. LCROSS will confirm that - probably - but also quantify how much water ice hangs around in these giant polar craters.

We're about five minutes - by my wild guesstimate - from impact.
I'd have loved it if they'd put a camera on the moon to see these probes come in.
They'll hit the moon at more than 7000kph and - obviously - the moon has no atmosphere, so there will be no burning trail, just a fridge-freezer sized lump of metal hurtling in and making a new crater. The sight would be amazing.

12.27pm: Five minutes to impact - Nasa just confirmed. Fingers crossed.

12.28pm: Nasa have just switched to the probe's cameras. You can catch the video feed here.

Very close now. Bear in mind this massive impact will be completely silent.

12.31pm: If the moon does fire a probe back, we'll be fine. Get me Bruce Willis on the phone.

Impact in two minutes.

12.31pm: The moon looks very large now. This is going to hurt. Well, it would if LCROSS had feelings.

seconds to go.

12.32pm: What happens when the moon splits it two? You get one half, i get the other.

12.33pm: BANG!

Blimey, that must hurt.

Nasa's LCROSS has hit. Bullseye.

At least they think it's hit

12.33pm:

I loved - love even - the Clangers.

Let's hope they were on the other side of the moon when this thing hit.

12.35pm: The first part of the probe has hit. The second probe is filming the massive plume of moon dust. The second probe isn't going to be around much longer. A big left - right hook for the moon.

12.36pm: The second part of the probe is about to hit

12.36pm: Fingers crossed for the Soup Dragon.

Wonder what readings are coming up on the cheese sensors?

12.37pm: he second part of the probe - the shepherding stage - has just filmed its own spectacular demise. She was a brave ship, we'll miss her. Utterly selfless. I need a minute.

Nasas have found a thermal signature in the crater. Applause at Nasa mission control.

12.39pm: They hit the crater, the second colliding just a couple of kilometres away from the first - according to initial data.

The south pole of the moon now has a new crater and a giant 10km high plume of dust lurking around. It'll take a while to settle. Ok, no atmosphere to keep it in suspension, but not a lot of gravity to pull it down either.

12.40pm: Ah, back to Nasa's red coffee table with the talking scientists.

It's too cloudy in London to see if the moon has survived. Will someone rush and look?

On Nasa's pics, the plume is a small grey smear on the surface.

I'm happy to report that the moon appears to have survived the ordeal.

12.44pm: You have to love LCROSS's last words:

"That's it! Ground! Ha! I wonder if it'll be friends with me?"

You're in a thousand pieces. What's there to be friends with?

12.48pm: There's a man at mission control who looks like he's out of Lord of thee Rings. His beard reaches his knees.

Oh, back to Nasa's little red coffee table and the three scientists. Nice to see they've matched their shirts.

Not too many women around.

12.49pm: You'd think there was something in the male psyche that said: "yeah, go tear a new hole in the moon!"

Great stuff though. Congratulations to Nasa and their staff. It might seem like a stunt, but this was a wonderful mission.

12.50pm: Nasa will be having a press conference to review the mission this afternoon at 3pm BST.

12.51pm:

Message incoming from the new(ish) Nasa administrator, Charlie Bolden. Congratulations all round.

The probes went right where they were supposed to go.

12.54pm: Twenty minutes after LCROSS impact, Nasa have wound up their coverage. What a trip, and great to have you along for the ride, voyeuristic though it was.

I'll write another blog after the Nasa press conference - we'll have more scientific details to pore over then. Looking forward to it.

Until then...

12.57pm: Good news: the Clangers are safe. My intelligence reports said - categorically - that the moon was harbouring a renegade group of Clangers. What's more, it said they could be mobilised in 20 minutes. New intell suggests otherwise. They were never on Earth's moon in the first place. With thanks to Agent Moulinsart.

12.58pm: I'm ashamed I missed the Douglas Adams reference. His books are responsible for making my teenage years stranger than they might have been. Great stuff, love it.

1.10pm: Well, I can't sit around watching the moon all day. So long, and thanks for all the fish.

95. "RE: So have we discussed that NASA is going to bomb the moon tomorrow?"
In response to Reply # 0
Fri Oct-09-09 09:05 AM by ILL FLOW

aight check it!

They bore a hole in the moon right? then after the smoke clears they (the astronauts hear a sound... light whispering but in a weird tone)

So the video is going like cloverfield or something. they're walking toward the blast site, tryna get some of that sweeeeet sweeeeet nectar. (AND MOON NECTAR SHO IS GOOD)

So the closer they get the more they hear sounds of scampering or scattering... like something is crawling.

One observer walks away from the other astronauts and further into the hole. so far that he disappears in the cloud of astral dust surrounding them (ladies: i used a man so as to not upset ya'll... i should get OKP pts. for this... you'll see).

Further he goes, further he goes... into this deep and murky cavern that NASA has just created. following this mysterious and luring sound.

the others wait... and wait...

*radio silence

one of the astronauts feels the silence has gone too long. he attempts a radio contact of the lone scout deep in the cavern.

"ANDERSON?"... "ANDERSON!?!" (i use Anderson cuz it seems like a white-assed NASA last name)

*no response

then... all of the sudden... all of the astronauts waiting JUST outside the crater hear a response... but not of words... just a hissing/slithering sound. and by sound of it... more than one entity.

one, decides to try heading back to the shuttle to make first contact to Houston (i guess they still call Houston).

*camera follows him to shuttle

he contacts base and lets Houston know the situation is normal, the crater has been made but the scout has not yet responded of the water resources just yet.

Houston asks if there has been any radio silence... he responds ONLY for a moment but there is a unnerving sound from the scout.

Houston asks "WHAT" unnerving sound. he replies a hissing of sorts... like a hissing or something that is hard to make out.

Houston asks where the others are, He responds that they are awaiting the OK to enter just outside the new crater.

Houston gives an order to gather THOSE men and abort mission IMMEDIATELY. the astronaut is unclear as to why beginning to question but Houston is unmoved repeating the order and demanding urgency.

the astronaut sets out from the shuttle (which is only about 50 yrds away but upon return the other astronauts are down. the thick haze that covers JUST up to their bodies is slightly covering their faces.

he waves his hand back and forth in front of the face of one astronaut to remove the thick fog-like haze only to find a pale-FACED astronaut with a face-hugger (see: ALIEN) covering his mouth and nose.

*STUNNED

he goes to the others faces ONLY TO FIND THE SAME THING!

*then a breeze seeming to come from nowhere pushes the fog away only to see ALIENS coming toward him (you know how they do! tails all wagging and drooling and shit... scary)

he turns to run toward the shuttle but the second he turns around (and now you gotta see this) HIS FACE IS PUNCTURED BY THE ALIEN INNER MOUTH (that's what i call it) STANDING BEHIND HIM

(i mean, straight between the eyes yo!)

as his body wiggles through shock the camera starts to raise as you can see the earth in the background of the moon.

*begin opening credits

AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW YEAH!

peace

134. "the short version:"
In response to Reply # 129

an indian space mission and a nasa mission both found evidence showing there might be water below the surface of the moon.

they want to see if there is, in fact, water under the moon.

Option A: send a manned mission to the moon (first one in 35+ years) and have them assemble a drill, and drill hundreds (maybe thousands) of feet into the surface over the course of several days/weeks/months to see if they hit ice. then bring the astronauts back home safely.

Option B: create an explosion that will make a crater hundreds of feet deep in a few seconds.

142. "because much of the expense in launching space missions"
In response to Reply # 138

comes from having big ass booster rockets filled with shitloads of rocket fuel, which are needed to escape the Earth's gravity.

In the future, if we are to explore space and conduct advanced scientific research, it would be FAR more cost efficient if we had smaller craft that could launch from a base on the moon (far less gravity) or from the International Space Station.

a key part of building a sustainable base on the moon would be a local supply of drinkable water - allowing the astronauts to stay there longer without having to go back to earth for supplies.

In addition, the discovery of water on the moon could potentially open new doors of discovery as to the history of our solar system, which does not have a dollar value.

143. "Water facilitates the existence of life."
In response to Reply # 138

So if there's water on the moon (or other celestial bodies), it might mean that there are (or were) living organisms on it. That would be one of the biggest scientific discoveries of our time, if not the biggest.

It would also end the fable of god putting us here (and nowhere else).

Also, the presence of water mean that it would be much cheaper to have a manned base on the moon in the future, which could benefit all kinds of research. Research that will one day probably improve our lives or the lives of our children.

201. "First: I meant, "here and nowhere else"."
In response to Reply # 194

Which is based upon my (limited) understanding that the major theistic religions claim god only created life on earth, and nowhere else. At least I think the Bible makes no mention of life on the moon, correct me if I'm wrong.

But that's besides the point of this thread (or at least, what I think the point is, after nearly 200 replies).

I can't tell you how our children will benefit exactly, as I can't predict the future. But the technology that was once developed for space exploration is currently being used in everything from shoes (velcro, if I'm not mistaken) to hospital equipment (better robotics for prosthetic limbs, better MRI technology). KosherSam linked a nice overview in this thread.

Nobody is saying that agencies like NASA should be funded without limit, or given a free pass to do whatever the fuck they please, but they've more than proven their usefulness by now.

In response to Reply # 201

so i fail to see how you arrived at the conclusion you did.

i have yet to see a passage that explicitly states that god did not create life anywhere else

in fact it teaches that there is other forms of life different from humans- angels, cherubs, etc.

isn't covered by their holy texts. See also: dinosaurs (although some believe they are mentioned in the Bible), evolution, a lot of other stuff science hipped us to.

But my comment wasn't even that serious, so let's not get into a religion debate in this 250+ reply science thread. Please?

156. "Also,"
In response to Reply # 138
Fri Oct-09-09 02:22 PM by stravinskian

there is the question of the origin of the moon. People are understandably curious about where it came from, how it developed, and when.

The leading hypothesis at this point is that early in the development of our solar system, an object roughly the size of the planet Mars collided with the developing Earth, causing an enormous blast of debris, most of which re-collected to form the Earth as we know it, and most of the remainder slowly came together to form the moon. Measurements of the chemical abundances of various materials in the moon (particularly water) supply crucial data to support or contradict this hypothesis.

EDIT: I just noticed that Sam briefly mentioned this. I guess I was expounding.

217. "the opening sentence of the article phenom posted says"
In response to Reply # 198

"just weeks after the indian space program and nasa announced evidence of water on the moon....."

from there, it's just my logical assumptions. if you think there is water below the surface of the moon, how do you look for it?

you'd have to drill. but you can't just bring a big ass drill in the cockpit with you, you'd have to assemble it.

so you'd have to send men to the moon, which is more expensive because you have to make preparations to make the trip sustainable to human life, as opposed to machines.

then, the men would have to assemble the drill and set it up to drill hundreds of feet below the surface, possibly thousands.

i dont know shit about drilling, but i'd imagine that would at the very least take a couple of days. then they gotta get back in a vessel that will take them back to earth.

Option B creates a several mile crater in seconds.
____________________________________

as for the stuff about the space station and smaller crafts, that's just gravity. shuttles don't use that much fuel in space because once they get a thrust to move them in a direction, there isn't air to create friction to slow it down. so a spaceship that was leaving FROM space could be the size of an SUV (with future technology advances) because it doesn't have to escape Earth's atmosphere.

140. "To add on to KosherSam:"
In response to Reply # 129

In terms of danger, this missile (the size of a big fridge, if I'm not mistaken) is peanuts compared to the countless of meteorites and other bodies that impact the moon on a regular basis. So there's really no reason at all to believe that this will cause the moon to shift its orbit, or rain debris on the surface of the earth.

The whole "bombing" terminology used by the media to add flair to a relatively dull story is causing people's heads to spin a bit too fast.

I think the "fable" he was talking about was not so much about God, but about the idea that life *only* exists on Earth.

In response to Reply # 166

I never said "there is no god" (well, not in this thread). I only said proof of life on the moon would dispel the myth that god put us here, which is in itself incomplete and incorrect, because one could simply reply that god *also* put life on the moon, hence the clarification in parentheses.

Maybe it was a poor choice of syntax. I'm sorry if it confused you.

>point is, it just adds the ironic tone of this whole thing

Does it? I find it slightly ironic that you're bending my words to make it seem like I'm even more arrogant than I really am, in an effort to point out the supposed irony in this thread.

you don't say "literally bomb the moon"

if the headline directly after that line is "NASA to 'bomb' moon"

see how they put the word in quotation marks?

yeah

that was to try and stop you saying that first line

oops.

anyway, the moon gets hit like this, what, three or four times a month? yeah. that kinda sums it up.

The moon's like lightyears away. The radiation in interstellar space would fry any machine they send up. Most of all, we gotta remember that there's ZERO gravity on the moon, so how could there even be a plume of dust?

Right. There couldn't.

The whole thing clearly doesn't add up. Someone's trying to fool us.

In response to Reply # 233

Amateur astronomers and news media are disappointed that there aren't any good images of the plume. But I guess there are pictures out there of the crater that was formed. More importantly, they seem to have collected very good, clear data on the chemical composition of the plume. I guess people are saying the results should be out in a few weeks.

257. "i thought this was some graf shit to let Mars know 'this OURS'. "

like, a giant robot controlled aerosol can remotely operated from houston, bombing the moon with a whole car, top-to-bottom, dark to light side piece.

just to let any other interstellar sets know what time it is.

"EARF WAS HERE, BITCHES!!"

'sol system.

(that'd be a dope graf crew name). Sol/aerosol.

like, they took lil street ninjas and hooked up up w/ internships at JPL and then NASA greenlighted the joint proposal between the National Endowment for the Arts and the National Science Foundation.

then we could have an underground hip hop album as a soundtrack:

Moonbombing, Vol. 1.

can you imagine just how MAD ny and la cops would be if they looked up at the moon every fucking night and it was covered in graffiti? they'd be working on municipal rocket programs just to try and whitewash that shit.

mfers just chilling in a crater, caught the moon at the layup, and went to town. that's whassup.

peace & blessings,
