Bombing the Moon for Water
s20451 writes "In 1998, NASA scientists deliberately crashed the Lunar Prospector into the Moon, in a
failed attempt to detect traces of water allegedly hiding in deep craters at the lunar south pole.
Now the BBC is reporting a new proposal to attack the lunar poles with "Bunker Buster" missiles to liberate a detectable amount of water. Called Polar Night, the mission is being proposed as part of the "Discovery" series of probes."
Oh, wait, hold on... you said WATER. Not oil.
Luna ("moon") is a symbol on many Islamic flags. So, that's why that place has been chosen by Saddam Hussein to hide his MDW ("mass disstruction weapons").
By why not send there some UN inspectors at first? Otherwise there will again be no evidence that MDW was there or not. Well, perhaps Mr. Bush doesn't care about any evidences of MDW anymore, he wants just destroy MDW in every place where he thinks there might be a chance of MDW. Smart guy!
Less is more !
They're not even within 100 miles of the moon. They are not in any place. They hold no place in lunar space. This is an illusion ... they are trying to sell to the others an illusion.
Please, please! The Americans are relying on what I called yesterday a desperate and stupid method!
My rights don't need management.
That word does not mean what you think it means.
1. An authoritative command.
2. An urgent request: I called the office at the behest of my assistant.
They should give UN weapons inspectors more time!
I agree. We should send ALL the inspectors to the moon. As a matter of fact, lets send the entire UN to the moon, just to be safe. I will even pitch in for gas, because I am that kind of guy.
I know that if we did, _I_ would sleep better at night.
Tequila: It's not just for breakfast anymore!
