moooon juice

Check this out

That is interesting, every time I think of a moon colony I picture some futuristic dome. Going underground would make more sense.

 

[gwai lo]

Yes I can? NASA is the most wasteful organization on(and off) the planet. The science has nothing to do with it.

Are we going to go ahead and discount results that NASA puts out that don't make an immediate impact in your life? Like winglets?

 

[meltdown75]

we like tha moon
cuz it is cloooose to us
we like tha MOOOOOON
but not as much as a spoon

Well, water means one more thing:

"We're whalers on the moon...."

 

[Printer Bandit]

what's on the dark side of the moon?

It sure opens up some exciting possibilities. Lots of water, perhaps natural shelter and a bunch of H3.

No, you can't.

NASA is all about science and the further advancement of science. You can claim they are wasteful, but that doesn't change the previous statement.

Science is advanced in order to help society. NASA spends billions of dollars launching junk into space just to find water on the moon or another planet, which helps nobody and in no way advances science. How about we spend the same amount of money developing a means to get clean water to countries right here on earth that don't have it? Why waste our time trying to locate intelligent life in space at the cost of ignoring the life here on earth? NASA isn't about science or advancement.

"there is no dark side of the moon, really. matter of fact it's all dark..."

Yea, why sail across the ocean? There probably isn't anything over there anyway. We need farmers, not a bunch of fuckin' explorers.

His mother never told him she loved him either.

His mother never told him she loved him either.

she was about to, then he said, "what's the use of telling me you love me anyway? makes me feel all good and stuff... what a waste! LOVE IS A WASTE"

There's only limited benefit now, but there will be huge benefits in time. The Science of the Future will be built upon the Science of today, without the Foundation you can't build a House. Or in this case, Affordable Stellar Travel, Colonies, etc.

So you think it's nonsense, but in a few Generations they'll be thanking us for providing the Basis upon which their Society is built upon.

love is a curse

I understand that science of tomorrow is built on science of today, and there are expenditures involved. But NASA spends more money than anyone with little return. They were ahead of their time, we aren't anywhere near ready for space.

NASA: Discovery could allow for development of lunar condominiums and space stations

Space exploration is expensive. You want the benefits, then you pay the price.

My point is there are no benefits. Water on the moon? Guess what, there's water right here on Earth. Costs you a dollar, comes packaged in a bottle.

you can't be one and not the other.

I don't support PETA. Does that mean I'm anti-animals?
